Good to hear of your progression. That thumb is a pretty handy thing, isn't it? I still wear a cloth open-ended "sock" on my right one, for now, as the tendons are in tough shape. It keeps me from bending it incorrectly which can cause extreme and immediate pain! BUT therapy is helping AND using a voice recognition program to type. (Ya gotta birthday coming up or something so you can ask for it as a pressie?)

Good luck with the rest of your recovery!
