    Fat Boy Hand Update
    Just wanted to update everyone on my hand. I got my prosthetic Monday and have been working with it pretty good. It is as close to my real hand as I could get. I am the only person in North Carolina with this particular hand and one of only 200 in the world. It is the newest technology called the I-Limb. Thanks to all of you who shared your thoughts and prayers during my ordeal.......Frankie

    I just watched a video in the "I-limb" man that thing is cool. I got to watch a guy make coffee and even play a little grab ass with his wife..

    The individual fingers moving and the range of motion is astounding.. Congrats Bro..It looks like a great prosthetic.

    Yea...I have seen that video, he has the rotating wrist option. I have to wait 1 1/2 years before being allowed to get the rotating wrist. They want me to master the hand before upgrading.
