So today I was sitting at the desk doing paperwork. My husband walks in the room and calmly says, I need to go the the doctor or the E/R. I jumped up and saw it, the treble fish hook with one of the hooks sunk into his finger past the barb. He was fishing in our pond and was trying to get a firm hold on the line so he could release the fish. So we spent awhile in the Urgent Care. I waited in the waiting room. When hubby came out, his finger was all bandaged up and he was holding a little bottle. As I got under the steering wheel, I asked him what was in the bottle. Turns out, he wouldn't let the doctor cut the hook so she could push it out the other way. He told her he wanted to save his hook. So she used forceps and snatched out the hook. He got a tetanus shot and an antibiotic prescription. Now he is good to go.
What an afternoon.
