I'm so tired of this day, we are still waiting for the guys to come and fix the water issue. They were supposed to be here a half hour ago and I just want a shower.
M's got different bandage type on his toe, he is resting with his foot propped up. It looks like the new medicine and bandage are doing the trick because I don't see any blood seeping....don't gouge a chunk of your nail bed out, that is the advice I have from this.
I think all told it was 8 or 9 hours at the ER today. I want a shower so bad.

Sound advice. I had a big toenail ripped from the bed by a line drive whilst pitching batting practice, but it didn't gouge the nail bed.
That said, it still hurt like fuck and the nail took its sweet time growing back in.
A few weeks ago when I was trimming my toenails, I started to clip down on the nail of my second toe, and the entire nail just...lifted away. There was a little blood, but not like you'd expect for having an entire toenail suddenly removed. My best guess is I caught my toe on something (I am very clumsy and stub my toes way too often) and it damaged the nail bed and the nail was not going to stick around to get stubbed yet again. Now that toe is freaky looking. Like it lost its hat.

A toe without a nail is basically a nubbin.

It is! It has no personality.
Tom, so sorry. It was like that with my mom, too. I wasn't there but one of my nephews was sitting with her while one of my sisters took a break. it;s never easy. glad you got to see her.
Shir, every time I hear anything in the news about Northern Israel, I think of you. I'm relieved to hear you are in a safe place
~ma for anyone I missed.
It's a Scrappy kind of day! Missing her wisdom and hope she is doing well and has a delightful day.
I'm sorry for the excessive ER time, but glad they improved the bandage. Hope you have water this morning.
I've lost maybe 6 toenails when I was doing marathons (big toes more than once). It would take months before they came off. After the new nails grew in under them they just fell off, usually with a bit of help. Amazingly they all look normal now despite the abuse. (My joints apparently will never forgive me)
OK, from the exactly one article I have read about him just now, I conclude that I like him and I like him for the ticket. So, that's a good start to the day!
Oh, and also, Happy Birthday, Scrappy!
