Hi friends.

Last week I went to the orthopedist again and I finally don't need to immobilize my finger anymore! It may sound silly, but this was getting to me a lot - being able to shower properly after 6 weeks is such a relief, lol.

I'm using a medication to help with healing, as I had several marks on my finger.

However, there are some downsides:

• I will have to do 20 physiotherapy sessions, as the movement in my middle finger is very limited and I can't bend it.
  
• I'll have to relearn how to type, because depending on the key I can't reach with my middle finger and I have to use other fingers, like "A, S, D, F".
  
• I'm feeling a lot, a lot of pain in my finger. Yesterday I had to take sleeping pills because of the pain. According to the doctor, there is a small inflammation and for having been immobilized for so long, it influences my pain.

I have to go back to the orthopedist after these 20 sessions, to see if I was able to regain my movements properly.

And, of course, this whole situation is affecting my finances as well, since I've been idle for a long time.

I confess that I have a VERY BIG fear of not being able to recover 100% of the movements (there is that chance) and having to abandon some things, like playing keyboard/piano. And that would leave me devastated 😦

I'm slowly getting back to my work, but progress should be slow for a few weeks yet - probably for the rest of the year.

I'm trying to be positive, but it's not being easy.

Your truly,

O Ilusionista
