Update on My Injured Finger

This is Steven Petrick Posting.

My right pinky finger is almost done healing. I know have a nice kind of "V" shaped scar on the tip of it, and the sensation of touch there is . . . well off. Not like it was before the pallet crushed it. The finger is fully functional, at least in so far as I can tell. I am not having any more difficulty typing with it at a computer keyboard than I have ever had (since I first learned to type). But it seems a little more sensitive to touch than it was before.

Mind you, I am not complaining. It would be the dickens to learn to type without a pinky (as other fingers would have to take over the job of hitting the keys that the pinky hits). So while it may be a while before I "forget" that the Pinky is "sensing" things a little differently than before and the sensations from there become "normal", at least it is still there and doing its job.
