Paul,

I don't know if he will need further surgery yet. I am taking him back to see Dr. Kline on May 5th. It is so sad to see him suffer, although he has pain, it is not severe. Mostly, he still hasn't gotten past the upset of having this happen two weeks after high school graduation. He was suppose to start college in September and couldn't, then we thought maybe January, but he still has too much pain to sit in a class, let alone the fact that it is his right arm and is unable to write. O/T is trying to teach him to write with his left hand but Gianni is very impatient and gets frustrated easily.

Whan kind of business do you run? How has your arm impacted your ability to run it? How do you deal with the pain with those long hours?
