Thank god you get to keep it!
Any word on if you will have full mobility\strength after it's finished healing? How about sensitivity? Is it gonna be tingly forever?
I had a pretty bad accident when I was like 18 with my right hand\wrist. Glass coffee table broke when I put weight on it getting up off the floor. I have a nice scar on it and the underside of my hand and along the edge of it all the way up to my pinky is forever "pins and needles". I have full mobility\strength in it but somedays I feel the tingle quite a bit.
Hopefully you dont get much of that.
