THIS THUMB HAS A REAL NAIL

Aren't husbands great? Why, just this morning I couldn't decide what to blog about today. By just after noon, my Dear Husband had answered the question for me.

First, the least shocking photo. It's the X-ray of his hand done in the ER shortly after he drove himself to the hospital.

Look! Bob's thumb has TWO nails!

I'd like to say that nail is on top of his thumb, or even just through the flesh, but no. It's through his thumb, and through the bone, too.

By the time I got to the ER, DH's thumb had been numbed, although it hadn't yet begun to hurt, and x-rayed, and he had every nurse, receptionist, and aide behind the counter grinning. He told them he had a hang nail. He tapped out a rhythm on the desk with the embedded object:

And you just never know how handy an extra nail can be until you acquire one!



Other shots (Brace yourself.):

Good boys get stickers & lollipops. He did the placement.

Bob's last word on the subject? "Thumb's up!"
