Thank you all so much for your comments
Your words, thoughts and prayers mean a lot to me. I am blessed.
I got great news today that I don’t need further surgery for now. They are healing well. Going to have to be very careful for quite a while not to bump or bang them but it could have been so much worse. Yes Jenn, many others with missing digits. I hope your arm is good now. I’ll never do that again that is for sure.

Thanks, still not 100% but getting there. Even when were careful accidents happen, were only human! Lessons learned are be patient and as careful as you can be... Honest to god I tripped twice within days of having the cast off and you know I landed on that arm both times Murphy's law .....'nuff said!

Simplify.......

I usually come in from the side, just in case.

OMG,
This sucks, Bruce. If your fingers did become more even, then maybe we can use the insidious device to even out Chris’ haircut. Get better soon!

Yikes !!
Heal up quickly then ask big D about his fingers versus a wood splitter 😱.
Lost the tip of my middle finger in a slamming steel door, made it easier to strum a guitar though.

Hope you recover well my friend.

I was a bit scared to read through the rest of the posts when I saw the first one.

Shapers are the ones that make me think thrice....and shiver.
