WARNING! Long and Graphic!



Saturday me,my sister, and the girls went to town. When we got home around 9 Ken,Levi, and my brother Murray were at the back of our property burning a dead tree they had cutt. As most of you that know Levi he is right in the middle of any grown men work. Ken motioned as we pulled in to come back there with the girls so we just drove back there. Ken and Murray were talking to the kids and Levi was trying to get the back of the trailer down to get up there for some more wood. He somehow got his finger stuck in the hole that latches the trailer back and instead of hollering for help he just pulls his hand out and it ripped the WHOLE end of his finger OFF!!!! I couldnt believe how well he takes pain (like mom thank god!). He comes running to the car and said "I THINK I hurt my finger". Ken looks and about passes out and goes crazy. I get Levi loaded up and FLY to the hospital. My sister follows me because the girls are still buckled in my car. I get to the hospital and all I can say is the lord above had full control people. They took us straight in. We were in, saw doctor, had xray, dressed, and out in an hour!!!! Amazing huh! Gods great! Anyways Ken finally gets there and I said why did you not ride with me he said "Kelly I had to get a COLD glass of water before I feel out"! OMG I could kill him. Thank god I was home. Murray brought the finger but they said it would be more trouble to put it back on. He cutt it to the bone but the doctor said we needed to dress it for several weeks and follow up with his doctor on wed. I couldnt believe they give him LORTAB! I knows he is good size but 300 mg! He also has an antibiotic to take for about 3 weeks. We are thankful it was no worse because he did lose a good bit of blood but he is doing good. Im so proud of him!

Poor Levi!!! Please tell me you put your hazard lights on while going to the ER (I don't know of anyone that would put them on if it truely weren't an emergency :) I hope he is feeling better, and Ken too... I'm very surprised he didn;t just fall out right there and you would have had to load him up and take him in as well...
