After a conversation last night on FB with my Brother from another Mother whom I have never met (Thanks RH) I decided it was time for me to check in and let everybody know I'm still alive and kicking.
My health is stable at the moment, I still have my issues but I'm doing good. I had Carpal Tunnel surgery on my left hand last month after my hand went completely numb on me. It's healing up great and feeling much better!!! Feeling is the key word there.
I'm just getting back to playing again after the surgery. Feels good to have a guitar in my hands again.

I'm truly enjoying living out in the country and the country life seems to agree with me!!

I have been wandering into the Forum every now and but really haven't had much to say. Just know I'm still around and will post when the urge hits!!

Until next time..................

It's good to hear from you again, Chet!

Take it easy on that post-op care and let the wound heal in its own time.

BTW, I like Rusty too.

Rawk on!

Thanks Arjay!!

I'm actually doing better than expected in my recovery. I had 1 PT appointment and they were so impressed that I don't have to back. I'm doing exercises daily to improve mobility and strength. I'm even doing the exercises on both hands to try to keep both working.

Hey, Chet:

Can't say enough about how PTs helped me over the years. They truly are a big help. Glad to hear you're sticking to the program, and I wish you a speedy recovery, but don't rush it. Before you know it you'll be back to executing your mojo. :wink:

Kenny
It has not even been 2 months since my surgery. I probably could have started after I was told I could take the brace off (4 weeks after surgery), but I wanted it to heal a little more and be seen by PT first.

Playing guitar sounds like good PT! Or maybe that would be OT.
