An Urgent Matter Of One Index Finger

"Anyway, now it feels fine. The clot is gone, the circulation is normal, it feels good. I honestly don't expect to have any trouble, though I won't know definitely until I've thrown hard for awhile. I'm sure the clot won't come back, and the circulation should be O.K. The only thing is, we don't know what damage might have been done to the finger while the circulation was bad. There might be damaged cells or something like that, and that might show up when I start to throw hard."

He smiled again and shrugged, philosophically.

"I'll have to wait and see."
