A&E in my kitchen.

[Will Ayers]

years ago i cut my hand with an axe and my dutiful wife, then a medical student, stitched it together for me. then after an accident with a hedge cutter she again patiently put me back together. i'm now cleaning the kitchen table for the imminent arrival of a friend who is looking for a few stitches in the back of his hand, and has heard we do a great line in home made "personalised" stitches.

 

what are peoples views on these home remedies. has anyone had the same. and as a side note, isn't it strange how many tree surgeons end up with partners in the medical industry! i know a fair few!

When I was in the Army part of my job as a door gunner was being a team medic so I had been trained to a high standard. So I fix my self 90% of the time I think I've given my self about 15 stitches I find it's saves a LONG wait in A&E.
