So, instead of a party tonight, I spent the evening in the Emergency room with Michael. He's such a bruiser! I'll spare you all the pictures, because this one tells all..... (warning: it's a bit graphic)
After the initial shock wore off, he was quite the happy boy, even smiling for me on the way to the ER. And he was a trooper through it all. The doc glued the wound shut, and then put tape over the glue. And ta da! Good as new!
