day one

day one, i've had my pin out for 1 day now. it took 2.5 hrs at the dr office. we waited for an 1.5 hrs before we went in back, never go the week after the holidays as they are catching up. the cast came off and the skin was not to bad. the fellow/resident looked and seemed to like what he saw as for as healing. he informed jenny and i that the nerve could take a month to 'wake-up'. dr. bynum had the pin removed which felt weird but not crazy. we then discussed what i can/nots do. wear your removable hard cast accept when moving it to strecth the ligament, no squeezing, pinching, torquing, jarring, crashing of any sort. i'm out of work for 5 more weeks.

luckily i also started training for umstead marathon with a 3 mile run. we'll see how things progress.
