Chips' Chainsaw Powercarving Raleigh, NC http://www.logart.tk tgmiii_@msn.com 9-5-04 Well the jammed finger on vacation turned into a major two hour hand surgery. Volar plate arthoplasty and pinning. I took the max. dose of perkocet after surgery, for pain and had to call 911 but told them not to come. I couldn't breath and my heart was racing. I settled down to a cold tremble. I called my wife to come home twice last week... cause I was "tripp'in" fro m the combo of anithesia and perkocet. I didn't want to die alone. I get my stitches out next week and pin out in three weeks then 3-6 month's of physical therapy. I am going to try to work Wed. If I can hold a Chefs knife. I'll update next week. Chip
