Well, the table saw won......darn it. Here we were in the emergency room right before the surgery. His hand was pumped full of blockers. We had to drive from Newport emergency room to Corvallis, which is one hour away..... (give or take a minute or two).
This was after the 1 1/2 hour surgery. The doctor is very optimistic that he will recover full use of at least three fingers and 3/4" use of the ring and pinky. He severed the tendon underneath the ring finger and shattered the bone. They fused wire to the bone at the knuckle and hope that it will hold. He lost the top of his pinky. We go for x-rays, and rehab next Wednesday.
We won't even talk about the pain.
