Thumb Update

It has been 2 weeks since Jasper's surgery. He is going great!!
There is no pain, and he is back to being... well, Jasper!!
It is a bit sad that he can't go to school swimming that is on for the next 2 weeks, he is missing his Scout's Camp this weekend, and still out of action with his football, but it is not forever, and hopefully the "new" thumb will make life more productive for him!

Just a reminder.. Here is the before photo:

 Just a little crooked, and he didn't really use it for much.

Here is a photo from about 1 1/2 weeks ago, when we had to change the dressing. Notice the 2 hooks out the end? It was so swollen. Poor love.

Here is his plastic splint, all signed by his friends!

 Today at the hospital, here is what his thumb looks like now. It is SO straight!!!
The wires come out in 2 weeks, so that will be the telling tale - will it hold it's shape!!
I will update to let you know...

Thanks for reading
