Well the bandaging plaster and stitches came out the other day after 14 days covered... man ohhh man did it ever STINK! :C Anyway... there was a bit of a worrying panic for about an hour or so after they took them off as the wedding ring was noticed to still be on the finger! :o the hand specialist on looking at it looked up at me then at the finnger then at the wife then back at the finger "you dont wear a wedding ring do you?" "yeah" "good god!" and he quickly buggared of out of the room and stayed gone for a good few minutes coming back with the surgeon and the registrar along with several other important lookin nobs and nobbettes and they proceeded to all look peer and shake their collective heads the surgeon looked casually muttered "Im due in surgery" and left...
The problem was that since he had left it on the finger had swollen so much only a thin band was able to be seen the hand specialist was all for operating there and then... to remove the bloody finger!! :o luckily the missus and the wee young nurse that was there asked them to just wait and see if it would go down enough to cut the ring off he reluctantly gave them "1/2 an hour" and luckily with the two of them washing and massaging the ring finger the swelling went down enough that the wee nurse could prize the weird cutter under bit and cut it... then it was just a matter of the missus holding my hand to stop me flinching while she bent the ring apart... whallah ring off :2tsup: surgury to remove finger off... thank gawd!
I go back to see him on Wednesday to check the ring finger then again in two weeks for the index... talk about bloody dramas :C :B
So here we are
