Don't give up. This reminds me of a story I read a while back.

http://media.www.dukechronicle.com/media/storage/paper884/news/2006/10/05/WSoccer/Mcdonald.Returns.To.The.Field.After.Brain.Surgery-2333763.shtml?norewrite200610091356&sourcedomain=www.dukechronicle.com

I was a DJ for years and after surgery just pushed it aside thinking it will never be the same. Thought I could never match beats anymore being down an ear but today (with different set-up) I am just as good. Those that love music like we do find the power to make it happen. God Luck

Hold on, the calluses may get soft but they will return. I know that recovery time for eveyone is different but here's my story. I have spent the last 21 years as a professional musician- did my masters degree in cello/ piano. There is no way I could have played  after 3 months. I tried 6 weeks after surgery and it was so bad that I assumed all music was over. I put it away and waited until the fall season started.  I remember the first symphony rehearsal, 5 months after surgery. Boy was that a trip. Trying to move my hands, fingers, arms, then move my eyes from music to conductor back to the music without the whole world spinning. Noise on all sides, those trombone players only know loud, I truly hung on by the seat of my pants but you know what, 2 years after I'm doing great. It takes time. At the concert a month ago, I didn't feel like tipping over once and I knew where my hands were at all times and I didn't even curse the trombones.

Ok that was a long story to say, it takes time. Tell yourself you will re-evaluate at one year but never give up hope.

and margarita's are great!

Take Care- Mary

satman - I hate the words I'm about to type but they are true "You have to be patient".  Things do improve, just very slowly. In fact I'm wearing my contacts again for the first time in 3 years. I had to go see a "contact lens specialist" but so far so good.

And please vent away anytime, we really do understand. :)
