I've been doing my hand exercises diligently, and I'm pleased to report that I've already gained almost total mobility again with my injured thumb. It still has no strength, though (no pinch: I can't grasp things or pick them up) and the joint is still incredibly painful - though I'm not sure whether the pain is still from the injury or whether it's just an increase in the arthritic problems I was already experiencing in that thumb, even before the accident. But I'm off to Switzerland this weekend - to the University of the Nations campus in the little town of Burtigny - and I'm trusting that my hand won't be a hindrance to things that I need to do during this "think tank" week for the University. I'll be in Switzerland for eight days before returning to Spain again.
