Oh my goodness! That is terrible. I am glad he is going to be OK.

He's alright, swelling is almost completely gone, and besides a lot of pain he seems to have full function in his left thumb and hand. He's hoping to get back to work on Monday. Very lucky, but poor guy's been in a lot of pain. Thank goodness for lortab.

Thanks. Me too. It was such an unreal situation. I don't think I've ever even seen a rattlesnake in real life. Also, I didn't know that the babies don't have rattles, just a small hard piece on the back of the tail called a button. Been educational, if nothing else. I know Donald will hesitate before he picks up something that crawls or slithers into his shop again.
