Check out my sweet set of stitches! I made it this long in life until I finally did it good enough to have to get sewn up! Let me tell you... it hurts worse when the needle goes in your fingertip to numb than the pain of the actual cut. OUCH!
So here is the glorious story: As some of you know I am a medical assistant, self
explanatory... I assist the doctor with all of his procedures, which includes vasectomies. (if you don't know what a vasectomy is, lets just say it is pretty much neutering a male... I know, isn't my job great) The doctor couldn't get the blade cover off the razor to prep the patient, so he held it toward me to remove it and right as the cover came off my finger ran across the razor edge and bingo, I ended up with a fantastic fountain of red out of my fingertip (good thing the patient was on Valium & sedated enough to not notice a single thing) So there is my story, no great heroic injury, but I am sure this is a one of a kind! ;)

Workers Comp! At least you're smart enough to get hurt in a doctors office where he can fix you right up. Awesome story!
I was a witness and I am here to tell you that you were very brave little one - you deserved a sticker and sucker.
Ouchy! No fun. You and Brandon I think are a little accident prone. LOL. I hope Brandon's knee is feeling ok. Keep us posted on what is going on with it.
I would have requested Valium. Your finger's vasectomy looks painful! I have some bad news for you....your finger can no longer have babies.
