Goodbye to Dequervain

Since January, I suffered from DeQuervain's tendonitis in my hand and there was a long list of activities that made me scream in pain, including:

• Changing Jake's diaper
• Brushing my teeth with my right hand
• Handwriting - even to just sign my name
• Opening a jar or bottle
• Cooking
• Using a knife
• Using scissors
• Opening a door
• Putting a seat belt on
• Getting dressed
• Turning a water a water faucet on
• Typing

After 4 months of physical therapy, medication, splint wearing, and finally a shot of cortizone the pain is GONE. I will not miss the pain but I will miss that Tristan did all the diaper changing, cooking, cleaning, etc.
