Geoff, on the other hand is not so lucky. He broke his thumb on Thursday while playing basketball. Not to mention, that his pointer finger was already half missing from a fracking accident years earlier, his hands aren't looking too good. Today he goes to a specialist to make sure the bones will heal ok. Also, today a drill fell on Asher's head while he rummaged for a straw in the pantry. I think the sky is falling....

Ouch! This looks exactly like my friend's finger, and he ended up having to go to the doctor to get it lanced, because it was so full of pus. Hopefully yours goes down on its' own!
ouchee ouchee!
Erin, thank you for the sympathy "ouches."
Rachel, I thought lancing it would be a good idea too. I sterilized a needle in a flame yesterday and punctured the thing, only to have a tiny amount of pus escape. THEN, today, while I was at work, I picked at it slightly, and the whole thing oozed out thick green slime-pus. GROSS. But, the pressure is gone. Thanks for caring. :)
Soak in very warm epsom salts a few times a day-plus you get the added benefit of getting to sit around relaxing- strictly for health reasons, of course- no multi tasking while your hand is in a tub of water- most can be expected to do is watch tv or read :) hope there are no further health problems for a while at your house.
