It's good to hear about other people's experiences and recoveries. There was a 48 hour period where the doctors were telling me it might be too bad to operate on and I had to wait to see the top hand surgeon for a final decision... the darkest hour just before the dawn. When we met he told me he would operate and was hopeful of pretty good results... I almost kissed him!!!
I'm intending to work on some right hand piano while I'm out of action and progress onto lap steel when I start to get feeling back. I'm in the fortunate position of being able to move to the north coast of Ireland to live with my parents while I'm healing which will be good
It was doing my head in having guitars in the house and not being able to play them so I lent a most of them out to mates and sent my amps on holiday to another mate's studio... I've got some pints to cash in
