Megan saw the doctor yesterday to check on her finger. I told him there hasn't been any change since her last visit. Her finger still gets stuck and she cannot physically unstick it by herself - meaning she needs to use the floor, table etc to force it straight again. We talked for a long time and after consulting with the hand surgeon to verify that our treatment plan was correct we decided to keep things the same. She will continue to wear the brace when she is napping or sleeping.
He said it could take up to 18 months to fix this, though we are certainly praying for a much speedier recovery. As long as nothing gets worse, meaning she isn't in pain and her finger isn't unable to be straightened, then we will keep this plan. If something were to change for the worse then we would need to meet with the surgeon to discuss intervention.
