Health update

So here is an update on my injured arm. The news is that I have seen the doctor at Royal University Hospital in the ortho department today and had another X-ray done, and the good news is that I am healing up very well from my arm injury, as new bone has been forming. I was also given a number of exercises to do with my arm to get it back to working order.

As I am writing this I am able to typeg again with both hands. I expect to do a bit of typing in the next few days to rehabilitate my hands and get them back to working again. The problem is my hands are rather stiff at the moment, so the typing I am doing is really more to aid in my recovery so I am ready to get back to full-time typing at work.

I still expect it will take a while for both hands to be fully functioning again. I’m also not to do much more than light use of my hands and arm at the moment for eating and reading books and so on.

It’s still a long road to a full recovery, but in any event the good news is I am now well enough to go back to work beginning next week. Using the keyboard at work should go a long way towards getting my hands back in solid working order. Also, I should be well enough to be able to attend the SWNA convention this weekend and lift a fork to eat their food.

Thanks to everyone at the paper for their well-wishes and for putting up with this situation for the past number of weeks. I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I’m really looking forward to going back to work.
