Chaos: Don't Stress, Undress

After 5 months in a cast and an unsuccessful healing of my broken wrist, a sliver of my pelvis was sawed off and inserted into the broken bone as a graft, then everything screwed together with a titanium screw.

35 years later, and still holding strong.

By the time the surgical repair healed, I had been unable to use my right thumb for 7 months. I still find myself holding my toothbrush without using my thumb on occasion.

"We can rebuild him..."

That is impressive. Thanks for sharing.
 
Younger me, learned a valuable life lesson, don't scratch.

Yes those white dots are scars.

Yeah, try telling that to a young girl who is highly allergic to mosquitoe bites. (Skeeter syndrome) Where benadryl, and other solutions couldn't cut it.

Yay for hypersensitive skin! Only noticeable if I get sun!
