So last night my hubby managed to slice open his elbow right on the outside of the bend. He came inside stuck it under the faucet and here's the conversation.....
Me-You need stitches
Him-Nooooo
Me-I don't want to tell you that but you do need stitches
Him-I am not going to go to the emergency room, I'm fixing the roof and I'm not done
Me-Well I can try to butterfly tape it but I can see the fatty tissue sticking out
Him-Just do your best
So I did. I got him taped and bandaged. While doing so he felt a little light headed so he agreed not to go back up on the roof and a beer sounded better. But right now he's at the waiting room at the clinic so the doctor can stitch him up if he needs it.
