I see you edited your message... (Or it was edited) In either case, I am always willing to lend a hand to my fellow man if I am in a position to offer the help. I am a firm believer in trying to do the right thing, that is the only way that good things make their way back to you. ;-)

I did a good job cut the independanttendon clean, cut the common tendon 3/4's
in a splint now at least I can take it off to shower! and sit in hot tub!
snowing here still Eileen and my sons are out shoveling and snow blowing the driveway and walkway
Hey Frank, hope the healing goes faster than you expect. Everyone keeps telling me to just lay low and let it heal. I'm going to pass that same advice on to you. Relax and let nature take its course. Before you know it you'll be back up to full strength and shoveling your own driveway :shhh:
