ummm...eww!

Chad had to get surgery on his hand-he got it on Tuesday the day after the funeral. They put 5 pins in his thumb! We had to wait for 2 weeks after that for a follow up, so we ended up staying in Utah for 2 and a half more weeks. We went in for the follow up and they took off his splint- his hand looks like a corpse. Eww! There are pins sticking out in every which way and the skin was all shriveled around each pin and it stinks and seriously you might get a little light headed if you saw the pictures on my phone. I won't share them here-don't worry-just the x-rays! Chad got a little light headed himself and had to lay down on the table. He will have to keep the cast on for at least 4 more weeks and then a brace for 3 weeks more-then he can start taking that off when he isn't doing anything too strenuous. So he won't be working for awhile....or doing dishes....or changing diapers. So not cool.
