My sister was at the hospital at the time so I spoke to the emergency ward doctor about attending whenever the chance would come up. A little boy came who had opened up his knee. At least five stitches were needed. I didn't even get to see the first. Just seeing the (very clean) wound was enough to make me faint. I lied down on a bench in the corridor while the little boy was being stitched up. <br /><br />We bought steri-strips and never had the need for them in our 2 years of sailing half-way around the world. Good thing.Nathalie H.D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16806509041466785588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8224553157260839191.post-47609292547199085652010-07-01T04:06:42.197+01:002010-07-01T04:06:42.197+01:00sweet.sweet.Witnesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01447361030363512001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8224553157260839191.post-71852811434682909752010-07-01T04:06:40.298+01:002010-07-01T04:06:40.298+01:00sweet.sweet.Witnesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01447361030363512001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8224553157260839191.post-22771745468409895992010-07-01T01:54:22.738+01:002010-07-01T01:54:22.738+01:00How a brave boyHow a brave boyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8224553157260839191.post-77578052870870242552010-06-30T20:27:36.994+01:002010-06-30T20:27:36.994+01:00Such concentration - a budding doctor there perhap...Such concentration - a budding doctor there perhaps?jennyfreckleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12221511824958069710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8224553157260839191.post-15218973691090961552010-06-30T13:25:44.133+01:002010-06-30T13:25:44.133+01:00come superare la paura delle siringhe e dei dottor...come superare la paura delle siringhe e dei dottori .......elisabettanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8224553157260839191.post-23649448949553524432010-06-30T12:16:35.461+01:002010-06-30T12:16:35.461+01:00That's a brilliant idea!
