It’s official: two fractures, neither of which is especially serious. More uncomfortable than anything, and inconvenient. I have a splint for the middle finger, where I have a chip fracture on the joint above the knuckle. The wrist fracture is a bigger, non-displaced chip fracture on the distal radius – the bone just below the thumb. I have a removable splint for each, rather than a cast. This will make bathing much easier.
I can function much better in this new and stylish black splint, even drive and draw and hold a brush. I go back on the 24th for follow-up. Overall, 4 to 6 week healing time.

That’s MUCH better than feared! Good news!
Thanks, Kathy! I couldn’t agree more.
God stuff!
It’s good to the know the full results of the accident…and you now have a Ninja wrist splint, very stylish and cool.
Ha ha! It wasn’t so silent when I went flying over the dog. And yes, it is good to know the results – I didn’t think they were bad, but knew I had at least 2 broken bones before I even went to the doctor.
Yeah!
Good to hear that you can start to do some of the things you’re used to.
Thanks, Graham! it is quite therapeutic.
