Pollicization!


Surgery! On september 3rd Charity had a surgery to make her Lt finger into a thumb, due to the fact that her original thumb was small and she was unable to move it.
The surgery went well, It took about 5 hours and she was able to come home that same day. My mom was able to stay the weekend with us and help out. Her cast was neon green and then we had to modify it with some neon pink!
Three weeks later the cast came off. Her hand looks different fore sure, but not as weird as I thought that it would look. It is still swollen between the thumb and the finger and in the next 3 weeks that swelling should mostly go down. Now she is wearing a splint for 23 hours of the day and is able to take a bath.
