I know of one who passed away almost a year ago from a brain tumor who wasn't allowed to go to work. That damn near killed her, in and of itself. She hated being out of work. She had a lot of concern for her patients and her co-workers and hated the idea of being forced to stay home. She felt it unfair to her co-workers 'cause they had to cover her job (it took three of them, by the way) and felt that it was wrong because her patients needed her.
As for the do-it yourself bandage, my personal preference is masking tape. If only to keep blood from dripping all over a customer's car.
