Surgery: The follow up

So Eric is recovering quite nicely from surgery. We took the bandage off and the first thing he did was put his thumb in his mouth! We have been trying to make sure he keeps his thumb out of his mouth for now but he thinks it's funny when he does it and gets caught. The first day with the bandage off the stitches "opened up" twice causing some bleeding but it stopped just as quickly as it started and it hasn't bled since. The wound seems to be healing ok. We'll see what the doctor says on Tuesday when we have our follow up appointment.

His hand after, like magic! (the put marker on his thumb to indicate the correct finger to operate on)
