Dear Dr. Schaefer,

I just wanted to send a thank you for all the hard work you did. I know it would not be possible to have my finger right now if it wasn’t for you. I use it (well sorta) every day. I look back at the situation and know you took a big leap for me which I don’t think I can thank you enough. I know there were plenty of other doctor’s asked and couldn’t do it but you stepped up to the challenge and helped me. Thanks for all the work after the surgery as well and just being kind and worried every time I came in. For the tips on how to keep it warm and how to make sure I keep the finger forever. I sent you this collage of before, during and after picture to show I’m so grateful for the hard work you put in to saving my finger. Like I said before I don’t think I could ever show you the amount of gratitude I have towards you but thank you again,
