Thanks to everyone for your words of support! Im recovering well. The stitches in my arm will come out in about 5 days. After that, my severed tendons will need about 1 month to heal. In the meantime, I will continue to work and teach, albeit a bit more slowly, and with more help from my coteacher.
Now I finally understand why in wuxia novels they will sever peoples tendons to cripple their martial arts! Thankfully modern medicine is much more advanced, and all my martial arts will be restored quickly. Next time I will be more careful when making a "cave." Haha.
I experimented with some voice translation software but it turned out to be too frustrating for me. I'm going to just wait till I can type with both hands. Basically, my right hand fingers aren't affected at all, only the thumb. And the tendon connected to my thumb wasn't severed, only injured 80%. I think I should be able to start typing relatively normally in about two weeks.
Stay tuned, I'll be posting updates as quickly as
