Big Sliver!

We kind of made a bad choice today when we followed our big brothers and Tyson over to our school, and we didn't wear shoes, and we climbed on top of a wooden picnic table and got a NASTY sliver in our foot. I don't know how the boys got her home, but they managed somehow. I took one look at the thing and called the HMO immediately. They were all for bringing her in.
It's a good thing we like to read.


YUCK.  Don't even want to think about how that felt.

Waiting to see the doctor.  Beary makes everything better. 


Numbing cream which unfortunately didn't numb it. 
The sliver went deeper than the doctor originally thought, so Roz had to have some anesthetic injected into her foot... poor thing.  She was not a fan, to say the least.  The doctor pulled out a big chunk but a few fibers were left inside her foot, so he had to cut her skin to get the rest of it out.  

But finally... Sliver's out!  Yay!
Bandaged up...
Ready to go home.  She was so big!
