but cap'n.....

she folded her napkin!  so says mrs. keller in the movie 'the miracle worker' after helen and miss sullivan destroyed the dining room acquiring some mealtime etiquette.  well, cap'n, she tied her shoes today!


now that is progress!  the OT was here the other day and she says use it, use it, use it, meaning the hand and fingers even tho a couple are still quite numb.  after wound vac off she'll be back with exercises to move things along.  the knitting is definitely helping....


just about ready to start on the body of the sock....and just like quilts, from the back of a galloping horse it looks pretty good...awkward getting used to 4 needles with 2 numb fingers but i shall persevere.

the wound is healing at an astounding rate tho not yet completely closed....nurse said it should do that on the wound vac so leash remains in place for now...the surgeon did carpal tunnel release as well and that incision in my palm is tender and a bit sore, aggravated using the rollator.  

the puzzle is about half done and still very challenging....may start rotary cutting some squares soon....thankful to be left-handed.  gotta awaken the muse you know!  have a blessed day!
