Last March, I was slicing cheese with one of those pampered chef knives, and wow. Right into my thumb. Nine stitches and a splint later! Ouch, that hurt and boy was I bleeding. The shots that they give you to numb the area while they stitch you up was worse that the cut!

I cut my arm with a carpenters knife. I had to get 7 stitches. This is not a attention thing. It is a disease. Tey had an episode of Intervention on Aand E all about it and I cried like a baby knowing I was not crazy like my parents accused me of being.

I have stitches in the palm of my hand. I was trying to apart some frzen food one day and the knoge (which was very sharp) gone into myhand, piercing it one way to the other. I had several stitches of course and I was in pain for many months. Till now the pain with the changes of the weather exists.

I've had to have stitches and staples a few times in my lifetime. I had my thumb re-attatched and my wrist sewn up when I slipped and fell through a glass door. Then once when I was little I ran into a very sharp object that cut deeply down by my shin bone and had to have 12 staples in it.

When I was about 2, I fell and cut my head. I got stitches then. Other than that, I have only had stitches after childbirth.
