Getting better slowly

Each day that passes I do feel that things are improving. For the first time today the swelling has gone down and my fingers look almost normal. I still get a lot of pain in my wrist though and am still taking pain killers day and night. I keep trying to do things and then realise that I shouldn't when the pain shoots through my wrist! I am using the sling to try to stop me doing things but it's not working very well! I am working in Hawera for the rest of this week with 2 others so I have some help on hand for a few days anyway. It has been quite cold and miserable today so I haven't been able to see much of the town yet but it doesn't look particularly attractive. May get the chance to find out tomorrow.
