Hanno had the surgery yesterday. I was starting to wonder if everything was okay because he was away from the ward for five hours. It turned out it was worse than they thought. He had cut tendons, ligament damage, there is a problem with his index finger that I don't understand yet and they had to repair the artery. Originally they said he'd missed it by a fraction but it sounds like he actually hit that too.
He looked very old and grey when he came back and he was still a bit groggy from the anaesthetic but the first thing he wanted was something to eat and a cup of tea, so he must have been okay. Hopefully he'll have some colour in his face this morning.
UPDATE - SATURDAY 2PM
He's home! We're having sandwiches and tea while watching Julie and Julia. It will be a very quiet afternoon and evening just catching our breath and settling back into home again.
Thank you for thinking of us. Hopefully we'll get back to normal again fairly soon.
