Well, I am, I hope, on the tail end of the last of my extreme makeover surgeries. 23 days ago I had my wrist operated on to correct a protruding ulna, the result of an old break. They took off about half an inch of bone (off thee end, so no plates or screws were needed), and ten days ago the doctor took the stitches out. Here is the progression of the healing process:

the splint	incision w/stitches
12 days post-surgery	23 days post-surgery

These shots aren’t super gross, sorry. This whole surgery has involved very little in the way of blood, puss, or gore of any sort. So for those who need a little ickiness in their lives, here you go.
