Welcome back,and wish you a speedy recovery.
I'd like to hear more details if it isn't too painful.
Only want more info because I'm a foot and ankle surgeon.

Feels good to be back...

Thanks TRF! As far as "fault" I'll guess I'll let the attorneys handle that; but the French press basically shattered in my hands while I was removing the glass from the plastic cradle, I sliced nerves in my left thumb and nerves + tendons in my right.

My biggest concern is getting enough functionality back to play guitar again. Physical therapy starts as early as next week, so I'm looking forward to how it goes. Thanks for all the support everyone!

Wishing you a speedy recovery! I'll never look at my glass French press the same way again. I will definitely be more cautious.
