Congratulations on getting that behind you. I remember when I had mine, I was extremely nervous. Now for the hard part....be patient! I had my surgery in October and started to believe I wasted a lot of time, pain and money because it didn't move at all. It was August and I was on Vacation, had got in a pool and all of a sudden I realized I could move it ever so slowly, but it moved! I was excited and my arm and hand has progressed ever since.

I said all that to encourage you to be patient!

Keep your chin up and keep on keeping on,
