Update on my broken wrist:
Last week I went back to the Hand Center in Philly and got my stitches out. They took a new x-ray, left, in which you can clearly see the breaks, yes, that's plural, and the stainless steel plate in my wrist.
The good news is, they custom-made me a nice, lightweight splint that attaches with Velcro. I take it off to shower and to do the exercises they gave me.
So all is going well. I start physical therapy next week. Maybe if I'm lucky I'll be all healed up in a month or so.
Yay!
