Plague Diary: In Which I Am an Incrementalist
Things which have improved:
- My right hand is no longer swollen
- I can now use my right hand to hold and carry things, and to grip bottles to open, if the lid is not too tight
- I can now remove my sling, wash my arm, powder it, and replace my sling without assistance
- I can raise my right am at the elbow a little
- Without the sling, my right arm can bear the weight oh a bath towel for short periods of time
- There is less pain
- The spectacular bruise in my right upper arm (running from 3 inches below the shoulder to the elbow) is now more yellow and orange and less black and purple
- I am much better at using my left hand, especially for hunt-and-peck typing
All that said, things still hurt, I still need assistance showering, and basic shit is hard.
