Cielee had her thumb surgery on Tuesday. It went well… up until Cielee regained consciousness, only to find that she had 0% functionality in her right and left hands! I don’t think that being doped up on morphine helped her perception any, either!

She looks like quite the prize-fighting ninja. Cielee’s doing well now, despite her temporary disability. She can’t suck her favorite finger anymore, and it took a few days for her to get used to that!
I can empathize with her. She became handicapped overnight. The tasks she used to do daily–like peeing by herself, eating, brushing her hair out of her face, and building with Lincoln Logs–she can no longer do. That’s a huge blow to anyone’s independence. She’s taking it in stride, and we’re fighting back the tears and the urge to say “Awwww…” everytime she struggles to do something.
The bandages come off in about 5 days. I believe she will jump for joy on that day. I believe that we will as well. |
