Life keeps handing me stressful situations, which aren't all that great for keeping me on points.
I had to spend last night in hospital, and I'm sure you all know what hospital food is like. My daughter got her finger caught in a door yesterday afternoon, resulting in the top of her finger, from slightly higher than the base of her nail, being almost entirely ripped off. She had to have surgery to repair it and they kept her in hospital overnight to make sure she recovered from the general anesthetic.
She's fine now, resting happily on the couch with her favourite videos and DVD's. I however, could use some sleep and a little less stress in my life...lol... -- Erin in NZ 125/89/75 kgs 125.89/1/165 lbs

I can deeply sympathize! I once stapled a box to my thumb - staple went right through the nail and into the bone! AKK! And my dad lost the tip of one finger twice - yes, managed to get the ring finger of his left hand shut in the nose cone door of a Canberra PR9 twice! That one was half an inch shorter than it should have been.
Give her some ((((((HUGS)))))) of sympathy and a cyber chocolate button or three!
How about a bath with scented bubble bath and candles?
Take care of yourself.

Thanks Krys. She's doing really well. She's running around like a mad thing and has refused all pain relief. Kids are so resilient. She even told me yesterday that she had fun in hospital.

It can be, yup. I guess the stressful times make us appreciate the good times more.

I'm sorry but I had to laugh about your dads finger. Cassidy's finger should be fine but they won't know for sure until next week. There's still a slight possibility that she'll have to go back into surgery and have the tip removed.

Thanks Fred. She's doing really well. Apart from the bandaging you'd never know she'd had an injury from the way she's acting. She's right back to her 4 year old bratty self...lol...

Oh my Erin, how horrible for you and your daughter!!! I do hope she is feeling much better (as well as you) and recovers quickly. My best to both of you.

Thanks Laura. She's doing really well, although we have to take her back to see the surgeon tomorrow. Then we should know whether she'll still have feeling etc.

Thanks Joyce. She's healing nicely. The surgeon thinks she won't even have a scar to show for it.
