Best wishes for a speedy recovery :)
Jan 30, 2017,09:48 AM
When I read the first line of your post, I immediately felt nervous. Thank goodness that you are okay and have experienced little after effect. I'm sorry that you had to start off the new year in this way but it can only get better from here. Please take care of yourself Francois and put your health first. We'll still be here

MikeH, I hope you are recovered from the anesthesia and (painful) osteotomy by now. Why are our PuristS Paris members in hospital at the same time? All of you: Get well soon! MTF

Sorry not to be able to answer totally positively Nico
By: Mike H : January 31st, 2017-23:10
According to the surgeon the operation went ok, but I did not expect the pain would be so acute after an osteotomy. Hopefully it won't last too long and things will be better soon. Cross fingers for me as I can't do it anymore, my right hand is totally im...
