After Bargaining and Acceptance Come Home Surgery

YOU CAN DO THISAmericans are comparison-shopping for emergency room services, because we are smart. For instance! "When Heather Staples' 6-year-old daughter, Sophia, fell and cut her eyebrow, Staples knew her daughter might need stitches. But instead of running straight to an emergency room, Staples took a few minutes to compare prices at nearby emergency rooms." She saved $500, therefore only paying $1200 for some needle and thread. We all know where this is going. Seriously you lazy woman, get a fish hook and some plastic thread and sew that little klutz up yourself.

She could have saved even more by just wrapping the kid's head in gauze and gaffer's tape.
Some people have no imagination.

Oh, Gaffer's Tape, is there anything you can't do?

A friend of mine just tightened his bicycle helmet and wore it for a few days until his head wound closed up. No, I'm not kidding.

Letting the child die from blood loss would have been the most economical solution, no question.

+1 to applying tape in lieu of a band-aid.

-1 to the experience of removing it.

Shouldn't she be stoning her parquet floor? I believe that's what the BIBLE says.

The place I go to has a pretty sweet deal - after 9 urgent care visits, your 10th comes with a free biopsy of any suspicious lumps.
