Tomorrow I add another wound to my hand so I can have a scar to match the one just beneath my thumb that I got when I was in college. That one I received when I sliced my hand open on a grill, cleaning it after hours at the Belmont, NC, McDonald’s. Tomorrow Dr. Wallace Andrew is going to slice me open again to get at my tranverse carpal ligament so he can cut it, releasing the median nerve pressure that is causing the carpal tunnel syndrome in my right hand.

We hope. He has a good track record, my Dr. Andrew, so I have high hope.

Wish me luck.

    I do wish you luck Michelle. I hope your surgery is super-successful and you mend quickly. .
