Got a BOO-BOO this am

Published: July 19, 2005, 1:16 pm

Went to work and was running some lumber thru the table saw. Board got twisted and kicked back on me catching my thumb under the nail and peeled it back with a half moon slice about 3/4 inch long down into the meat. Went and got stitches. So my thumb will be laid up for a bit.

The exact same thing happened to my husband last March while he was at work cutting steel on a shear. He still does not have full use of that thumb. Hope you do better.

I am feeling a bit better today. Feels like the cut is starting to knit.
Right side of my stomach by the navel hurts where the board hit me with a great force.
left a bruise about the size of my palm.
