I missed the early morning fog but the Autumn colours are at their best. I was able to manage the dog and the camera this morning! I have the use of my shutter finger, also my thumb and middle finger so I'm able to do quite a bit. I have Dupuytren's contracture which is a hereditary condition causing the tendons in the hand to tighten. The surgeon hopes to give me 25% correction to straighten my finger, but the condition recurs so it's not a cure.
Great job with your disability ;0) My father-in-law had his straightened and it seems to have lasted well so fingers crossed (if it's not too painful!)
@carolmw I don't think I wanted to hear that about the claw! My Mum had the condition too and fingers were all bent in towards the palm. Hopefully I will have stopped the rot to some extent. @cookie123 No it's not painful at all but it makes doing some things difficult.
