I seem to have thought that you got this thorn in your foot after pushing you for some reason (probably so you would get wet under the willy waterbug). Even now I can't read this story without thinking that it wouldn't have happened if it weren't for me. Pretty sad of me to feel that way still after all these years, but that's my memory of it. <BR/><BR/>Then again, because of this experience, when I put my foot down over one of those bolts that hold the pews down to the floor at the Stake Center and it went into my foot through my shoe and bruised my bone, I made sure that they irrigated the heck out of the wound before they bandaged it up. I remember sitting there thinking about what you went through with your infection and wanting to be sure that, despite the pain it caused to have them stick a tube into the open wound and flush it out with a bag of saline solution, it was clean and I would do everything to avoid a similar fate. Oh, and now we have matching scars on our feet between the toes.Nichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00468423974821282524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2365723478637027301.post-91966337391594662812009-01-07T19:52:00.000-07:002009-01-07T19:52:00.000-07:00YIKERS!!!
