Friday.
I
really love my job, honestly I really really do.
So
what has been so good about my day?
Picture
this.
Chappie
comes into my treatment room today with a sore foot. Seems that a couple of weeks ago, yes weeks
ago, he got a splinter in the sole of his foot while walking across a wooden
floor. Said that he thought he had got it out at the time.
Can you
see where I am going with this… read on…
His
foot was obviously infected with a nice juicy wound that looked ready to be
dealt to.
Small
scalpel in hand and gloves on I gently took to the offending area. I pared back
the callus formation over his original wound and very quickly out popped a huge
splinter all of 20mm long.
He was gobsmacked that it was such a huge one and immediately demanded
that I put it into something so that he could show his mates how brave he was putting
up with that in his foot.
After cleaning the wound up and putting a small dressing
on it my client went off a very happy chappie. Leaving one very satisfied nurse
to get back on with her day.
i can picture you mummy dearest almost rubbing your hands with glee in anticipation of ooey gooey stuff, hope you had fun :-)
