Well, I’m still not completely back, since I’m only doing sketchy-stuff (or coloring old work, as of today). It still takes me at least four time as long as before the accident and the hand gets tired very easily and starts to hurt quickly.
But yeah, it’s great to be able to produce something! Today it’s been exactly a month since I had surgery. After the surgery I expected about 6-8 weeks to be able to fully draw like before. So it’s in general pretty good news and I’m very much happy with how my healing progresses.
During this month I realized how important drawing to me is, because I missed it so much. It made me actually really sad that I wasn’t able to draw. Drawing has become such a big part in my life, and it’s great to have it back again. At least somewhat!
So, I just had a consultation with my handsurgeon. He says everything is gonna be ok, definitely no permanent damage. I should be able to start drawing again in 5-6 weeks. Hand will be back fully functional in about 8. So bronycon shouldn’t be in danger.
Surgery is going to be on Friday and I’ll have to stay for a night in the hospital. I’m at home now, enjoying boredom till Friday. I’ll get a neat metal plate on the underside of my wristbone where he can screw the bone together. Sounds fun.
Anyways thank y'all again for all the nice messages! Typing still sucks. :( And I already miss drawing greatly.
Oh, and the surgeon also said that it would help accelerate the healing process if y'all draw me some Appleteats.
