Скачать или смотреть From Surgery to Scissors ✂️ My CMC Arthroplasty Recovery + 2 Weeks of Real Life

Welcome back, friends! 💛 In this video, I’m taking you through my first two weeks of real life — from having CMC arthroplasty surgery on my thumb (base joint reconstruction) to painting projects, craft room clean-up, new furniture, and of course… lots of Tucker and Lucy moments. 🐾

In this vlog, you’ll see:
🖐 My honest recovery update just 3 days post-surgery — swelling, pain, and all
🩺 Why I chose to have CMC arthroplasty and what the procedure involved (LRTI method)
🎨 Crafting + painting hauls I couldn’t resist even while healing
🏠 Room transformations — bright, cozy, and kid-ready
🐶 Life with our fur babies (and their hair!)
🌼 The story behind “Tucker and Tulips” (coming in a future video!)

Why CMC Arthroplasty?
Carpometacarpal (CMC) arthroplasty is surgery to remove damaged bone at the base of the thumb, often due to arthritis, and reconstruct the joint for pain relief and better function. My goal: keep crafting and creating without constant pain!
