~16 Stitches & Back To Work~

Valdosta, Georgia
July 2, 2016 6:29pm CST
Sometimes my husband really surprises me. He got cut on a razor knife while at work today. He left the job site to go to the hospital. He had 16 stitches and he decided to go straight back to work after he left there! Most people would have went home and tried again tomorrow-not him though. Lol. He is so stubborn! He should be leaving work soon which I am glad for because I just want to make sure he is okay.

Some of us men are just like this. I worked with an old guy who had cut off his thumb at the first knuckle. His son says he got sewn up and went straight back to his job.

I hope that it heals all right and that he takes it a little easier during the next week while the stitches are in.

Some people are just like that. They get hurt, but then get right back up and continue. I do hope that it all heals well, and there aren't any complications.

He had to come home and rest at least a couple of hours. You are right he is stubborn. Keep an eye on him.

That sounds a lot of stitches. I hope they have wrapped the wound well. Where did he cut himself?

Once while riding my motorcycle, I rammed into a car's behind and fell of the bike. Thankfully, I had my helmet on. But I got many bruises all over me. People came to help me. I stood up. Then I thanked them and took my bike to a mechanic's garage. I still went to work by bus. That was because I did not like to miss work. your husband seems to be a rough and tough guy.

Stubborn is right. I hope they kept an eye on him and made sure he did not get faint.

Could it be that he is worried about his job or his paycheck? If he's not working, even if he's hurt, he might not get paid... I hope he filed that for workman's comp...
