post-op

[MartinH]

sorry for the lower-case spelling but i'm only able to use my right hand. i posted previously that i almost severed my finger, well things got worse. i had tendon damage and severed a nerve. now two days post-op, my hand and wrist are still in a cast and immobilized. i do have some nice pain killers. :cheers:

adding insult to injury i am not allowed to imbibe adult beverages and "she-who-must-be-obeyed" will not let me smoke. so, smoke a bowl for me and enjoy your weekend

This thread is worthless without proper capitalization.

The dang missus won't pour you a drink, or at least give you a sippy cup? Booo! Wait, mixing pain meds and drink--bad. You're just drinking in pill form. Think of it that way. 8) You'll figure out a way to get a pipe, I'm sure of it. :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

Glad you're on the mend, Martin. 8)

Bro M.
Just take care of yourself.

You can use one hand on a cigar. Just a thought.

MARTIN take care of yourself and get well soon. MIKE

I had the same thought. I hope your recovery is swfit!

Whatever you do, when she gives you orders, do not salute. Or you will knock yourself out. :lol:

 

[alfredo_buscatti]

My very best. But given the damage that you describe, it does seem as if your hand will be mostly functional, with rehab, in time, no?

 

[Rob_In_MO]

Martin - hope you recover soon Brother.

Sneak in a couple of Pipe Tobacco Cigars. hint hint! Pipe tobacco in convenient one-handed form...

 

[Mordechaj]

Speedy recovery, but lay off the pipe for some time.

Tobacco is counter-productive for re-attaching (almost)severed body parts - you are much more likely to reject them.
I can't remember the source of that info, sry.

smoke a bowl for me and enjoy your weekend

If my "she-who-must-be-obeyed" says anything about my pipe this weekend,.....I am doing it for Martin.


Good to have you on the forum. Godspeed on the recovery.

well that just sucks, but it's a small price to pay for a healthy hand,,,hang in there

 

[MisterE]

Dude! That sounds awful! Hope you're on the mend quickly.

SWMBO has rehearsals most days so a stolen bowl way outdoors might be the ticket! :lol: :twisted:

 

[flytyer]

Martin , take care of yourself and get well.

yeah my hand should be fine but it looks like i have three major incisions. as so many of you said, it's worth it once i get my hand back. thanks brothers!

 

[dougc905]

I sincerly hope that your hand heals without nerve damage and that you get full use back. There will be plenty of time to smoke & drink later. Focus on getting better.
