Holy Cow! I've got great neighbors!
So, FI cut the side of his finger very badly down through the pad and nail with one of my chefs knives I just sharpened the other day. He had been using a saws-all (lots of vibrations) to remove a plum tree we lost this spring in a bad freeze, so he didn't have the fine touch he usually does in the kitchen.
Well, he's known to lose consciousness with finger injuries. So, there he is kneeling in front of the kitchen sink, holding his finger under running water, with me... on crutches... holding him up by his shirt collar... as he's turning grey. Nice.
He was finally able to marshal his breathing and I was able to crutch down the driveway and yell for one of my neighbors. Both came, one helped me get his finger under pressure and move him to the couch. The other ran to her clinic for extra first aid supplies to bolster my kit. With their help, I was able to get it cleaned up and under a pressure bandage and save him another expensive and painful trip to the ER (just a few months ago a old water glass broke in his hands as he was washing it, $600 ER bill there).
I love my neighbors. Now, I get to laugh as I watch my darling, lightweight man get drunk on a single beer. Men are so funny around pain.

Re: Holy Cow! I've got great neighbors!
Hope your husband recovers from his injury soon!
The hospital was like, "We only see men who faint because of blood in their fingers, not many women!"
Gee, thanks!

Ouch! Although next time, I would avoid the running water if I were you and place pressure on it immediately to stop the flow of blood.
Hope he's feeling better!
He made it to the ER like a trooper. Then he got home and saw the blood on the truck. That's when he almost passed out and it took me, my mom, and my grandparents to get him inside onto the couch. How he could stare at his chopped up face without a problem, then pass out later at some blood on the truck is beyond me. Adrenaline, I guess.

[QUOTE]I got a finger prick and passed out. The nurse thought it was a seizure and called 911... The hospital was like, "We only see men who faint because of blood in their fingers, not many women!" Gee, thanks!
