Please excuse the finger holding

Nathan smashed his finger in 1997 while working on the rail road. He broke the tip of his finger so the bone is just floating in there and lost some of the fatty tissue in his finger. This finger has been a sensitive tip for him since. Well then 2 weeks ago at work he smashed his finger again between to pieces of metal. This cracked the finger nail in the middle of the nail. Then he did it again a few days later. Well last night he kept waking me up because he couldn't sleep. ( yeah that makes since huh? ) Well he would rest it on me to elevate it as I am a side sleeper. He whined and cried all night so neither of us slept. He then got up at 6:30 am and told me we're going to urgency care. His finger is double the size of all the rest, hot, red, and you can feel his heat beat just barely touchin' it. Well after the 1 1/2 hours in there he has staff infection and it needs to fester so they can cut it open and release the infection. But he is on antiboitics and pain meds till that time. It was a lovely morning spending it in the Dr. office where people are walkin' in with strep, the flu, pukin', coughin', sneezin', and touchin' everything. I actually grossed out for once and wanted to be put into a sterial bubble after I left there. Nathan made fun of me as I drenched myself in hand sanitizer before I go into the truck but I just went threw 3 weeks of this crap with the boys no more for me !
