Hand Surgery Follow-up

Caleb had a check-up with his hand surgeon yesterday. It's been over a year since his syndactyly release surgery on his right hand and almost a year since the surgery on his left hand. Both surgeries went well, and his fingers have healed. His right ring finger is still crooked, and he might need a minor surgery at some point to get it straightened back out. It sounds like that's still several years away, though.  We also will continue to watch for scar tissue build-up between the separated fingers. If that happens, a minor surgery can be done to clean up the scar tissue. We will follow up with the surgeon again in a year.
