Dolph's New Thumb


Dolph had his thumb joint reconstructed last Thursday. It was in a splint for a week, and yesterday they removed the splint and put it in a cast. He had a choice of about 10 colors. I thought that the hot pink would be nice, but he opted for blue. The cast will be on for 3 weeks and then he will do physical therapy to get it to work like a thumb again.  If you like the gory details of the surgery, you can see it at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6jqOkBE-eHw
