I got to play doctor.....

[DianaB]

Yesterday Jaci and I were in the basement when I got a phone call. It was my granddaughter, Kera, and she needed me to come over right away (they live just on the other side of a pond from us). Jaci and I jumped in her pickup and went over. When we got there Daya was in the living room crying. She had refilled a stapler and then had stapled her finger! I was expecting it to just be one side of a staple in.......but no......she had the staple neatly and completely in her finger!!! I knew that if I just took my finger nails to it I could get it out but she'd probably cry harder so I took a knife with a small blade and faced her behind me where she couldn't see. Then I took her arm under my arm and with the blade popped the staple out. She cried a little but it was out and done. We let it bleed a little then put peroxide on it. In a little while she was laughing and feeling better.........just wait until she gets my bill for surgery and a home visit!!!......She won't be laughing then!!!!!!
