I've got one, Cass. Shall I send it to your profile addy?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Yes please!

Thanks, y'all. I figured I was being a little paranoid about the tetanus thing, but better paranoia than a pointless and and agonizing death!Absolutely. If it eases your mind any more, the odds of tetanus are greatly decreased in any wound that bleeds out. Bleeding gets potential infection out; it's when they don't bleed (as in the deep puncture wounds mentioned upthread) that you may be in danger, like when I tried to break a board over my leg when I was 13 and didn't see the nail stickin' out the underside. Let us never speak of that again.

Now tagless for your comfort.
If a person were so foolish as to forget there was broken glass in the kitchen trash can and therefore acquire a small but persistently bleedy cut in her hand (specifically, the part of the palm that moves when you waggle your thumb), how worried should she be about it? The bleeding actually finally stopped while I was typing this, ten minutes or so after the injury, but it still stings like hell. Is my tetanus booster still valid after eight years?
I've actually done this so you're in good company. I also managed to slice my thumb once with a utility knife once that severed the nerves (they run up the sides of every digit) and that HURTS! I still have some residual numbness on that thumb. The hand has lots of nerve endings in general so it will hurt more than seems necessary. I hope it heals quickly for you and hurts less. You might try regular gauze wrapped around the hand and secured with tape instead of a bandaid.
Anyone got one of them gmail invites that I might have?
Ah, too late once more to unload one of mine. *g*
In food news, Owen LOVES LOVES LOVES cubed, cooked veggies and grapes. He literally stuffs his little mouth with them. Makes me panic all the way through the meal worrying he's going to choke. I have to dole them out a little bit at a time on the tray so he doesn't get ahead of himself.

Yeah, do watch that. Emmett had three choking episodes as an infant and they're all kind of heart stopping (for the parent). Small pieces please, and portion control.

Phoenix ate my post. I totally forgot to copy before I posted too.
Oh vw, not as a "strategic move..." (((vw))) Bad shrink, no biscuit.

Owen stories are good. Though now I want grapes.

I walk that fine line between too small to pick up and small enough not to choke. Did you know that you can get about 10 pieces out of a medium sized, seedless grape?

Okay, Owen's more than safe. I think I was content with quartering a grape.
