Stitches Out! Finger Update
On Friday I had my stitches removed, and other than a huge amount of pain in my hand for a few days afterwards (three freezing needles needed, and I couldn't hold still!) I'm on the mend!
Thank you Jesus!
The end of my finger is kinda gross... it's all blackened and covered with dead ski (kinda like a zombie)! The nail is ragged, and I get wheezy just looking at it. But I was able to play my guitar while I led worship on Sunday by using different chord shapes, and a few power chords.
Thank you Jesus!
I'm playing piano in a funeral on Thursday as well, and I'm teaching music lessons nearly as normal.
I'm just about out of pre-recorded songs, so hopefully it gets well enough in a week that I can get back to actual recording and finger-style picking!
Thanks for your prayers!
