Say AL, I saw the pictures of your hands in splints, did you stop the curling of the hands??? mine are just starting, both pinky fingers are curled. Thanks. EM

Hi Edna. The splints stopped them about half way.If I lay my hand flat (so to speak) the fingers are a bit bent in the middle but not curled. If I turn them over and relax them the baby one and next one are curled but not touching the palm yet. So I'd say they worked relatively well.
AL.

Edna May -

So nice to hear from you. How has everything worked out with your feeding tube?
