Remember that time I broke my arm... The Pictures.

So an update... Finally. I've decided to write a narrative of my broken arm. It will be good for several reasons. It will serve as documentation. It will be informative. And it will be a bit therapeutic to write it all down and get it out there. I've been working on the story for a day now, but I don't want to hold up the photo portion with the story, too, so I'm posting pictures. I'll try to get some new pictures up today or tomorrow and post the story by the end of the week. The story is proving to be rather long so that will be it's own entry.

For now, enjoy the pictures and their descriptions (after the break)

My Dad and Step-mom came up for a visit and brought me beautiful roses. I was thankful for the cards I got from everyone and these flowers lifted my spirits :)

My brother and I started referring to my right hand as "the claw"... it's stuck, although, many of my friends are now calling me lefty. I was able to use a small tripod I have to take this picture. I've been documenting the scar, swelling, bruising and progress with my camera. I'll put together a final scrapbook someday!

After a night in the hospital they removed the cast they had put on after surgery and gave me a brace. I needed to be able to changed my dressing every few days so that's why I got a brace. (taken with a cellphone by my mom).

This is the cast I got after surgery. I was on a lot of morphine in this picture. Waking up from surgery I could feel everything in my arm. It was burning and hot and painful. They put me on morphine and I calmed down. (taken with a cellphone by my roommate)

My wrist; deformed. This was after it looked better, too. I am only smiling because I finally cannot feel the pain. (taken by a friend).
