Recovery

I was surprised when five days after my surgery I got to take off the bandage and found this underneath (with stitches still in it of course). I was not expecting the incision to be so big. I was also not expecting it to be located where it is. I'm really hoping that it won't leave a big nasty scar. The tendons are still really tight and I can't open my hand all the way. I work on it everyday but it's going to take some time. I'm hoping that sometime in the next six years I will actually feel back to normal again.
