I'm going to be a god mother! My best friend is expecting her baby in August. She told me weeks ago but now she's opening sharing so I can too. She's DDs god mother, so I'm really excited she decided to return the honor. Bring on the baby fever as I BUY ALL THE BABY THINGS!!!! I LOVE BABIES!!!!!!!!!

*WARNING REALLY GROSS DETAILS*
Still pretty gross. I'm on a portable pump receiving IV antibiotics every 8 hours. Its cut wide open from my top to middle knuckle on the front, a triangular incision at the back of the top knuckle and a cut in the palm of my hand. The skin was separated from my bone all around (so if an incision was made at the base like a ring, the skin could basically be taken off like a sock to expose the bone) then they put syringe after syringe of saline into the hand incision and flushed the pus up my finger and out. Its pretty clean now and basically infection free which is good. I MIGHT be having the repair on the tendon tomorrow and they'll close it up if they are confident its clean (there would be huge risk to my joint otherwise) and likely continue antibiotics for the week. So my friends news is the highlight of my shitty week; hence my excitement lol.
Hope you heal quickly
That's terrible about your finger- what happened?!?! (medical nerd over here, I apologize that I find this SOOOO interesting!!)
get well soon
