And he should go to work tomorrow. A real man would have used newspaper and duct tape.

Went to work this morning while Hubby went over to have his x-ray. It was supposed to be a slow work day and actaully started that way.
Update on Hubby....Toe is shattered. He now has percocet in place of vicodin and strict instructions to stay off his foot with a nice boot (walking cast) to immobilize his foot. THis also makes it hard to get home from the doctor.
10 am...So off I go home to drive the Hubby around and take care of getting his meds. Stopped at the grocery store and bought dinner items (turkey, mash potatos, corn, rolls).
In between doing that my daughter came out of her bedroom stooped over. She has been like this for 2 weeks and has been to 2 doctors. I told her that since I was home to make an appointment with my doctor and I would just pay for it. (Good news my doc takes her insurance). Turns out Daughter has a hernia that is "strangled"...took 3 doctors to find that  (2 PM)
Got sent to hospital (3 PM)...evaluated and prepped for surgery (6 PM)...actually sent to surgery (8 PM)....Done 9:30 PM...Home 10 PM.....
Dinner ended up chips and life water. Hubby has been on his foot all day/night. Time to rest......sigh

Ack!
I'm glad she is going to be all better now.
Tell Brad to use some JB weld on his toe. It will be all better.

Sorry to hear about both of your 'patients". Brad is on his own but make sure to keep plenty of ice on hand for your daughter's wound site.
Been there done that and the ice pack really helps. Should be relatively pain free in 2-3 days.
Take care all in and pace yourself Bev. Don't want to spread yourself too thin and have a flu relapse.

Thanks....Been a really busy day. I died about mid-afternoon and all the patients including me took a nap.

Well Daughter is up an moving....not running laps and doing jumping jacks, but moving. She has stopped with most of the pain meds though she is still quite sore. A couple more days and she will be right as rain.
Hubby was told by doctor today that he could use the boot to walk....finally. he was going stir crazy. Has to keep the wound really clean...It's still bleeding Doc says with the type of wound it's expected. Dog hit it yesterday....I'm pretty sure it made Hubby cry 
Me? I'm going to work tomorrow....I right down tired
