thanks for asking. getting better and next thursday (hopefully, i will have the damn pins removed). the pins seem to be causing more problems now that the bones have started to heal. still hard to type, and screw upper case type.
i will now offer some wise words on how not to screw up your hand.
1. be careful where you place your hand in an engine compartment when lowering an engine, attached to a hydraulic engine hoist,...i highly recommend somewhere other than between the engine mount and the engine mount frame bracket
2. make sure the guy controlling the hydraulic valve understands three things....
1. how sensitive the knob is when turned to lower the engine...
2. "let it come down slowly," does not mean, open the valve all the way and watch as it crashes into the engine compartment...
3. the guy with the crushed hand will not be one of your pallbearers, which you would have needed if he had not been pinned between and engine and a frame....

Oh man that has got to hurt!
That guy sure is lucky you were pinned. Hopefully they will be taking out the pins next Thursday.
