Finger - Photo of stitches added

sometimes the simplest things... :banghead: glad you had a bud close enough to help you out [quote="Dart67";1971159916]15 stitches later

I won't be doing much for a week or two.

Long story short.

I was taking the left rear tire off of my red car "Home-Brewed" to move the rear back an inch in the relocate boxes.
It is large tire(3.25x50 on 15x10 wheel) and a snug fit. It stuck and I gave it a jerk, lost my balance grabbed for something to stop my fall and caught my left finger tip on the sharp lower left corner of the stainless steel wheel opening trim.

Then came the trip to the ER about 35 milesaway.

I could not drive and keep pressure on the sliced finger to keep it from bleeding.
My wife can not drive due to a broken left shoulder.

I called spl440 and he drove 14 miles from his home and took me to the ER.

I can not thank Shawn enough.

I was told to leave the bandage on for a couple of days.

Once it is off I will post a photo of the damage.
