Middle Finger

While the kids and I were off enjoying our camps, Kaylee was at home enjoying her week as an only child. Grandma Becki had Kaylee over to get some help with her landscaping. In the midst of trying to relocate a cement bench, Grandma Becki tripped and fell backwards, causing her glove to fall off and her to severely scrape her left middle finger on the cement. The result was a partially amputated middle finger. Kaylee helped grandma get the first aid kit and then called Trevor for help. They ended up in the ER where they all having week stomachs, were unwilling to look at her mutilated finger. 

Thankfully no surgery was required, however, close supervision of her finger is required to make sure it will heal properly, especially since she is diabetic. Grandma Becki was proud of Kaylee was staying calm. Kaylee admitted she was pretty shaken up by the whole incident and definitely does not want to go into healthcare...

ADDENDUM: Grandma Becki had to have her finger monitored weekly to check for infection and have the bandage replaced. Thankfully although a slow process her finger is starting to more normal, despite it being about 1 cm shorter than her other hand.
