Nurse seeking doctor

We had a bit of a scare last night. Susie was making chicken soup and sliced her hand on an open can lid - deep enough that she thought it could have taken out a nerve or tendon. We had a good look together and saw the tendon looking OK - so she did her nurse thing while I leaned on the stair rail and clawed back from a helpful 'I think I'm going to faint'.

The next 40 minutes were out on the motorbike to find a place to stitch things. Met a nice helpful guy who pointed to the sheet that said foreigners pay US$100 out of hours to meet the doc - before anything happens. Hmmm, maybe we'll come back in hours!

So, back to (another) clinic this morning - six stitches. Please address all sympathy cards to Sue Bonnevie, ....
