Donna Im as so happy that things went well for you today. Prayers do work. Now just pamper yourself and let your sweet husband take care of you. Please keep us updated. We'd love to hear how things are going and maybe others will look at the mini open surgeries, instead of the endo or open hand. Rest and heal. Melani
