Why (Photos)
Moby kept D company, slept on him last night. The yellow block is to keep the hand protected and elevated. The x-rays are before, during and after. The mass, the mass cleared of soft connective tissue, then filled in with graft. Easy to see not much bone was holding his finger together in the middle, any (likely) break would have been shattering. Necessary.
He's doing remarkably well with his left hand, or rather his "fret hand." Small mercies gladly accepted.

whoa...serious stuff
I second mark's "whoa!"
That swiss cheese brace looks cumbersome but efficient at protection and elevation.
I'm very glad to hear that it went so well. Big but carefully placed hugs to you both.
Rest now.
