Noting like a Monday night in the ER.

Update. Middle finger was reattached but index is a no go. I have to give some props Cmailliard and his TCCC class. I was able to get into my range bag and wrapped it in Combat Gauze and ETD so by the time the ambulance got here I walked right out and got in the back. I got a thumbs up from the doctors and nurses on my treatment of the damage.

And now I'll share with you all the real reason for my injury. I was initiating into the Yakuza and they required fingers as sacrifice.

Thanks everyone for the well wishes. Waiting on the wife to get back with my Oxy and then the rest of the day should be great.

First, sucks you had to use the skills, but that's why we do it. Second all the talk of Tommy Caldwell climbing ElCap the past month, most people don't know he did the same thing several years ago. Sawed off part of his finger cutting wood, he still climbs the hardest routes with only 9 fingers.

Where did you have the reattachment done?

Hope you have a speedy recovery.

Its not so bad after a while. I lost the same amount in the one pic you showed, mine is right index (trigger finger). Not able to reattach because I hit bone. Did you keep the lost digit?

What, like for a scooby snack?

haha, I had some giant gallstones in a jar around here for a while. Wifey finally threw them out.

Didn't keep the finger. ER doc stitched the middle one back, still waiting on effen Kaiser to call me back to meet with specialist.

The ER gave me name of their ortho, I may call and see what he will charge me if I pay cash.

For the record I hate Kaiser.

[mcjhr]

Correct.

Back on track..... Rooskibar did you go into shock at all? I was going to drive myself to the ER (it's close by). But was hitting mild shock and thought it unsafe called a buddy instead. Welcome to the club!

We do too. At least you only lost a finger tip.
