Glad the combo is working out. Infections can be very worrisome.

Sounds awful David, but glad it's getting better.

If I lost the use of my right hand, I'd be helpless. Couldn't type, work, feed or dress myself. Not to mention it would completely ruin my se......nevermind

[S-Man]

Sorry to hear that. Perhaps this can be of use until you get both hands back to normal :)

Noticed some neighbors down the block have 2 bull mastifs, would love to use them in a shoot, now talking about Big dogs!

Hope the hand/wrist heals up fine for you. You can always stick a pencil in your mouth and punch at the keypad that way.

Hope it heals up for ya David!

Glad you decided to go to the doc! Hope it's back to normal soon. I figure if I was a dog groomer I'm sure to be the one to get bitten. Was this the first one?

[Davidtxs]

I lost the use of my right hand for about 2 weeks. I was in High School, my senior year and worked in a grocery store deli. Was cleaning the deli slicer, and sliced the tip of my middle finger nearly clean off! Hurt like hell! So go to the Dr. and he stitches me up and wraps my hand up. In class, I would have to keep arm up, resting my elbow on the desk....my accounting teacher would always laugh at me and tell me to quit flipping him off! He would check to make sure he could read my left handed writing! I was so embarrassed, but I can write left handed fairly readable still!

David, I am glad you are on the mend!

Was it Cat Scratch fever? I had that and the same happened to me, hurt like hell and swelled up bad. I never have had such robust drugs to fight it either.

As for the Mastiffs, I have 2 if you ever want to shoot them. One English and One Neopolitan

wow David sorry to hear that. Glad to hear everything is almost back to normal.

"Was cleaning the deli slicer, and sliced the tip of my middle finger nearly clean off! Hurt like hell!"
