...and I apologize for not posting. I was away from my 'puter, and trying to do e-mail with the wrong hand on a Kindle just doesn't work for me. I couldn't blog, but I did get pictures while I was in Good Samaritan Hospital in Mt. Vernon for a cat bite on my right hand. I have been on IV antibiotics for a week, and will be for another week, but will recover. Day 5 the Doctor started squeezing pus and corruption out of the hand, and he took me into surgery on day 7 to clean it out. The next day he unwrapped the hand and reached for the gauze packing that he had ram-rodded into my hand. He said, "This is going to feel funny." It was more like hilarious, and everyone had a good laugh out of it. Here are some of my best pics in a slide show.
Holy Crap!
ReplyDeleteThat looks painful.
With that much swelling I think I would embellish the story a bit with a rattlesnake or a kimodo dragon.
Good grief - that was awful! Which cat was it?

Ugly wound there. An angry/surprised cat and a rotating fan are two things not to stick your hands near.
ReplyDeleteHow soon until you can play the violin again?
Wishing you a speedy recovery, David
OUCH! Good thing you got it taken care of when you did, or it could have gotten a lot worse, although it's bad enough as it is.....

It was Big'n, the one that lost an eye. He's not quite as tame as I thought.
