Jimmy's Surgery Update




Jimmy had surgery on the 23. Thankfully it all went well and Jimmy's wrist seems to be healing just fine. The Doc was able to reatach the ligament. He also put 2 pins inside making an X to stabilize and not allow any movement until it heals. Then he will take them out. He wore a bandage for a week, this past wednesday we went to San Francisco to the doctor and he put a cast on. The doctor said that out of all the surgeries he's done in 20 years his ligament remnant was the best one he ever saw. Pretty impressive! Dr. Bickel did an amazing job and we are so lucky we found him. If you ever need a hand wrist specialist let us know.
