Dad had a swelling on the palm of his left hand right beneath his ring finger. It was getting larger so it was decided that he needed surgery to see what it was. The surgery went well and it was nothing serious--just opened it and drained it. Somehow the surgery caused him to be more confused and he even became
incontinent for a few days (not even caring). The doctor decided that it was caused from the drugs used during the surgery and that he would return to normal. This he did. He is his old self once again--A little nervous, like a young child, about having the stitches removed.."It is going to hurt--I just know it will hurt" he kept saying as the nurse prepared to cut the stitches and remove them. After it was all over he said,"Well, at least I didn't faint!" He was a real trooper.
There was a group of people there the day dad and I went to have his stitches removed playing recorders. I had never seen such large recorders. The sound was lovely.
