Ouch!!

Maybe the crowbar should be on the do not use without full face mask list (it's on mine).

I recently learned that same move while trying to pry up some concrete... needless to say the concrete didn't move but the crowbar and I did.

So, being hurt in the line of duty means you are entitled to a night of pampering. Right?

I'm not completely sure that the instructions don't have a codicil that states, "Oh, very well. If you absolutely must denucleate yourself, don't come whining to us."

Trust Marc to reach for the camera rather than the first aid kit.

I hope that it heals quickly.

Is it a bad time to mention that I have an irrational fear of seeing other people bleeding?

desertgrandma · 10-24-2009, 01:19 PM

Then definitely dissect it!

Okey dokey... I would have done it sooner, but I couldn't find an appropriate screw driver...

I'm just glad you didn't quote Marc's original post again. There's a reason I didn't follow my mother into the nursing profession and it can be summed up in one word, "BLOOD"!!

Although I have a deep and abiding aversion to blood, I've learned over the years to grin and bear it while cleaning and bandaging childhood injuries. The worst was having to take care of a wound Zack received from the neckbrace he had to wear after his auto accident. It still makes me shudder just to think about it.

Marc, my sympathies to you and as I would tell my children, "Stop doing that kind of stuff and be more careful!!!"
