Ouch! Update

Tuesday Susan's fingers started to feel a wee bit like pins and needles.  So we made another trip to the emergency room.  One look at her fingers and they took her back to a room and cut open the split in her cast.  Then thy sent her back to the waiting room till someone could look at her fingers and make sure everything was okay.  The cast needs to be tight as her wrist is not stable, but not so tight that it cuts off the circulation.  The swelling does not help matters.

While she was waiting for someone to look at her fingers, word came in that there had been a serious accident and they started clearing the ER waiting room.  She was moved to another area.  Not too long after that she was seen by the same doctor who helped do the Bier's Block on Friday,  It was learned that she is scheduled for surgery with a hand specialist next Wednesday, February 25th.  (that will be the 24th in the states and Canada).  It is good to know that she is having a specialist do the surgery.  They are hopeful that it will be a same day surgery.  More updates to follow.
