trip to the ER

Posted on August 8, 2008

hi to all!!  C and H had to make a trip to the ER today….H cut her finger on a lid to a puppy food can. we don’t normally feed our dogs canned food, but they have all been ill with who knows what (two have died) and they seem to not want to eat, then they die.   we figured out they will eat the canned food  better because it is actual meat.  anyway, H was helping me feed the puppies this morning and sliced her finger open.  her left index finger, no less.  SHES LEFT HANDED!!!  well, i have no idea if she needs stitches or not so i had to call  C at work.  he came home right away to look at it.  he took her ( i was babysitting) to her pediatricians office to have them look at it.  they said yes, she needed stitches, but they don’t do that at their office , so they sent her over to the ER.  they ended up giving her 4 stitches.  she can’t get that finger wet for two days.  after that she can get it wet, but it can’t soak  at all in water til she gets the stitches out in ten days.   in other words she can wash her hands after that and shower even, but no soaking in  a bath or dishpan.  it is pretty tender and sore so she is taking it easy for the evening.
