I have checked it and put it through its paces. Worked perfectly. That said it will be going to my gunsmith before it is transferred to anyone. I am going out of town for vacation so it will have to wait untill I return. He is in no rush to sell it, just doesn't want it anymore.

Understood, and I'm glad it is functioning well.

Yes you can. Also I have yet to see my hand with only four fingers. I am sure that will have a profound effect on me. I am a very positive person when it comes to these types of things in life. Hopefully I can stay positive and not flip out.

No one notices mine unless they are a very, very observer or I tell them

its kinda funny lol

Thanks for the encouragement brother. I am more fearful of what my children will think and the story I will have to tell them. The worst part of the whole thing is i can't pick up and hold my son when he asks me to. As a father that hurts me so much more than the actual injury. It brings me to tears that my son may take it the wrong way. Yet I don't think he is old enough to understand one way or the other. But it is by far the most emotionally straining part of this ordeal. I love my son more than life itself.

Thanks brother. I am not one to give up. I'm hard headed I will regain as much function as the good Lord will allow me to. I'm truly flattered by all of the encouragement and positive reinforcement I have received. It's truly a blessing. I never make excuses and dont plan on starting now. I plan on updating this thread as time goes on even after recovery. I think it will keep me humble and allow me to reflect on the positive side of the whole ordeal.

Son, I Thank God that Your still here and that your son is here, Things could have been so much worse, and I know that you know that too. I can sympathize about not being able to hold your Son right now. Your still on an emotional roller coaster and He'll eventually understand Daddy Boo Boo LoL, and things will slowly get back to what will be the New Normal.
