With this lovely high humidity keeping grass damp all day long, grass clippings cling underneath my mowers. As I was de-thatching under my push mower Friday. I brushed my hand against the underside of the mower. I cut the middle finger on my left at the second knuckle.
I knew at first glance it was a deep cut, but I applied pressure for 15 minutes. Bleeding stopped only until I moved my finger, then it was bleeding heavily again. Drove 15 minutes to Express Care, and 4 stitches later I was out the door. They told me to come back in 10 days to have the stitches removed. I have to wear a bandage and Neopsorin on the stitches, and a splint under my finger to keep it from bending.
I am faxing my AFLAC claim later today. Hopefully, some cash will ease my chagrin.
