Well, the comments have been really lovely so far, think I read one that supported the wife saying she was a true surgeon unhindered by emotions, and hence a keeper... Might I suggest sedating your wife at night and then giving her a shot of her own medicine?

You mentioned she was a surgeon, and working a job where time is of utmost essence while managing those stupid interns, who flinch at every damn command can be a hassle. After sedation simply slice off each of her fingers instead replacing them with stuff that would help out, a scalpel, and a retractor for instance, a reflex hammer might be "handy" too.

A pager is a very useful device and a necessity for a medical career, so for the left hand replace the fingers with a small one, do let her keep that thumb though for the buttons, gotta 'preciate those opposable thumbs eh? I hope this guide would be a way to tell your wife that you are in agreement with her methods, and also a way for you to make her life more

manageable

PS: You might think that leaving her with just a thumb is harsh but you ought to

>Think of it more like…downsizing.
