I am happy to report that I have managed to sew with this on! Blogged about here: http://www.jenleheny.com/archives/145  [...]

Sorry you felt neglected, I think it must be the blogging world having clogged bloglines, seems everybody is talking about how long their list is these days and how tough it is to get through them all). I’m so sorry about your wrist, by I’m with pyglet, I think for all those bill they should knit you some fantastic cast cozy. Take care of yourself.

Sorry for not commenting earlier, am having trials myself…nothing broken however.
I am glad you can still craft! That’s if you can afford to buy supplies after all those medical bills…$300 for an MRI ! and for $50 bucks you’d reckon they give you a splint with a bit of colour (or at least a choice of colour) You might be able to choose a cool colour for your cast - what a design oppurtunity!
