Riley's surgery on Tuesday went very well and we are back to normal at home. We were supposed to try to keep the bandage dry and clean for 8 days, until his post-op appointment next Wednesday, but that didn't happen. The doctor knows that it's close to impossible to do this with a two year old so we had instructions on how to redress it if necessary.
The only thing the instructions didn't cover is what to do if mom almost faints when she sees the incision and stitches in her two year old's hand!
This is a picture from almost a year ago. It's the earliest evidence we have of how long Riley's thumb was stuck. Can you see the difference between the thumbs? His left thumb is the trigger thumb.

Poor little guy! How´s he doing now? What a trooper!
He's doing great. We just had the post-op appointment and everything checked out fine. The incision is all closed up and he doesn't even have a bandaid on anymore. He really is a trooper! The hardest part was how queasy because of the pregnancy, it made it really hard to look at his incision without getting super sick feeling! It's much better now and I'm getting used to see it now that there's nothing covering it.
Fun to see you yesterday, wish it was longer...
R is such a sweetheart and I'm glad that this got taken care of.
Love and hugs...
Alright, since I hardly get to see you all, could you pleeeeease update us with some pics of Riley and the rest of the fam??
