MY DEAR HUSBAND WENT TO MOVE THE LADDER AND THE TOP SLIDE DOWN AND SMASHED HIS FINGER AND I DO MEAN SMASHED. OH I CAN'T LOOK. THERE IS BLOOD EVERYWHERE. I HAVE TO LOOK, BECAUSE I HAVE TO FIX EM' UP...AH GEE IT IS BAD, VERY BAD. OH MY GOSH, MOST OF HIS NAIL IS GONE AND WHAT IS LEFT IS PUSHED UP UNDER THE TOP OF HIS FINGER, WHAT'S LEFT OF THAT. WRAPPED IT UP IN A WET WHITE TOWEL, WERE WE ARE OUTTA HERE. ST.CHARLES HERE WE COME. 4 HRS & 37 STITCHES LATER WE LEAVE THE E.R. WITH THE KNOWLEDGE THAT HIS FINGER IS FRACTURED, HIS NAIL MOST LIKELY WILL NOT GROW BACK AND BY THE SLIM CHANCE IT DOES, IT WILL BE SEVERELY DEFORMED.
WHILE WE WERE GONE A GOOD FAMILY FRIEND TOOK THE LIGHTS DOWN, CHRISTMAS WREATHS OFF EVERY WINDOW, RED BOWS, ALL OF IT. EVERYTHING IN NEAT PILES WAITING FOR US TO PACK UP & STORE IN THE ATTIC.
THANK GOODNESS FOR LIVING 5 MINUTES FROM TWO HOSPITALS.
THANK GOODNESS FOR GOOD FRIENDS.
THANK GOODNESS MY HUSBAND DIDN'T TURN INTO THE 6 YR OLD I KNOW HE CAN WHEN HE IS FORCED TO BE IN A HOSPITAL'S CARE.
NO I AM NOT MARKING FUN, I AM TRULY THANKFUL, REALLY YOU HAVE NO IDEA.
NOW I MUST SAY GOODNIGHT. =)
