Trip to the ER


Poor finger... Ryan actually considered leaving all the blood on his hand for halloween except for that it is over a week away...
How you ask? On a can lid. He used a can opener but the can didn't open so well. Ryan's little finger tried to help but the can won. Luckily Ryan still has the tip of his finger. 7 stitches! OUCHY! Just glad he didn't loose the top of his finger!
The only good part about it was that because of Ryan's job he knows all the staff in the ER pretty well. He actually took himself to the hospital as I hurried to meet him from work. He didn't go in the front door, he went in the back door and they took care of him right away. One of his job perks I guess...
It was pretty gross. The tissue inside his finger was coming out so much they had to cut the tissue out and pull the skin on his finger back up to close it! I didn't really like watching it but Ryan didn't seem to mind and blood poored from his finger. Probably because he couldn't feel it.
