I went to the hospital for a check-up this week. Compared to last month, the bone has filled in quite a bit. Even the bone fragment at the bottom is starting to show tiny white spots. While my rotation and strength are still slightly weaker compared to my right arm, I am gradually improving. Aside from those minor details, I feel like I’ve almost fully recovered. From now on, I’ll be having check-ups every two months, and the doctor suggested we schedule the surgery to remove the pins in September. I’m feeling a bit scared now. Having to go through everything from the hospital room to the operating room, and waking up from anesthesia—it’s not exactly a pleasant experience, so I’m feeling a bit anxious. I need to keep my head straight until September.
I received a bug report for the INTW app via email and released a minor patch. It was a bit disappointing because it was something I had missed, but I’ve decided to be more careful next time. I was also running an A/B test for the App Store screenshots, but it didn’t yield any significant results. The confidence level came out to 0%, which I kind of expected, but it seems visibility is still the main issue. I need to promote the app more aggressively, and I need to sharpen my plan. Even though the results were disappointing, I’m glad I ran the test because I discovered and learned new things.
I’ve been going through a personally difficult time this month. I’m currently in the process of finding a breakthrough and working through it. I’m trying to hang in there by doing good deeds here and there. Every once in a while, I get comforted by emails or messages from people saying they enjoy using my app. There are people around me who support or help me, whether I realize it or not. I’ll keep pushing through.
