Index finger knuckle is half in further back than it should be (too much bone & tissue loss) so I can't make a fist without the index finger sticking out a bit, but I have full strength back and can support my full weight on the hand (fingertips alone), so they did an excellent job.
Just have to keep an eye on it as no nerves in the back of the hand at all, so I don't know if I injure it.

Incredible. That must've been some specialist surgery and a half. Not so long ago and you'd have a Hamza Hook instead.

this is incredible, do you have full use of your hand again? i bet the med students loved you!

That's amazing - it looks like they did an excellent job.
Have you fully regained movement/range/dexterity in the hand though?

just think, when they dig you up in 65 million years, the museum curator will say to the archeologist, 'great, now we just need some wire to mount this specimin of a primitive hominid for display. WAIT, Jeeze , he is already wired up, what an amazing creature. a pre-wired life-form'

Nah! They pulled the wires out with a pair of pliers

Well there's a sober lesson for all of us - don't **** with power tools...

Also, are those pus drains coming out of your thumb or wire pins?

Wire pins. They went through all the bones to keep them together.
