Further adventures of a Spawnling

Spawn "How are they going to take the stitches out?"

Me "Well they'll cut the knot off and then pull it gently through

Spawn *in alto voce* "What? you mean I'll be awake?!!!"

Me "Yes you want them to put you asleep to take a stitch out?"

Spawn "YESSSS!!!!!"

Excitable child that, squeamish, doesn't get that from either her father or myself, definitely her own person that young Padawan.

So yes tomorrow the stitch and yes its only the one stitch as all the rest were the type to be absorbed by the body, comes out. Colour small child pleased, colour her more than a little bit excited by the prospect of getting to take off her own bandage tonight and then taking *gasp* a shower! First time in over a week, doctor's orders but he has now given the green light and says that he doesn't want any stinky lil girls coming to see him hehehe

Man, when I had my appendix out when I was 7, they stapled me shut and then they took my staples out with an instrument startlingly similar to your average office-like staple remover. THAT was agony!!! They needed a team of nurses to keep me still.

Damn that sucks! That must have been horrible for you.

I am so tempted to tweet the picture it should not be so bad to come out tomorrow and no, no staples that good.

Poor you *hugs*

AWWWW! I hear her! When I had to get stitches removed I was terrified at the thought but then it wasn't bad at all. She'll be fine.
