Marty,
I really wish I could attend but my son and I are taking the MD Hunter Safety course. Do you think you should see a doc right after being stuck or wait and see if it becomes red/inflamed?

Marty,

My one arm and I are going to try....

If you need 20 people, I can gather up drunks and kids from the neighborhood and bring them with me...

I would love to be there but am supposed to be in Elmira, NY Monday- Thursday. If something changes, I am in. If not, I expect you to provide good notes

Jeff, if Mike swings through Baltimore's "Block", I was counting on you to bring the exam table and stirrups

In all seriousness, I think Charlie was scheduled for his first skin grafts today. Say a quick prayer that all went well

I am so sorry I have to miss out.
The stirrups are actually in the shop for a tune up next week.
Sometimes I feel I disappoint you more than I disappoint my own family and believe me, that's saying something!!

Great news. Charlie had his skin grafts on Thursday and is schedualed to come home Monday. He is in good spirits and looking forward to the final stage of re cooperating and healing.
He thanks everyone for their concern and prayers

Great news about Charlie. He better recuperated enough for the spring flea market season. A few Beef sandwiches are calling his name at ESSEX MSSA. Look forward to the talk Monday Night

Mike, if you are going to pick up people at random; swing by Baltimore Street and make it interesting. Maybe the Dr. can talk a little about some other types of infections

I'll see you there, hope you can drink left handed

Definitely wait! These are still rare infections. However, once you know for sure that you have a problem (looks worse than a normal stick), the clock is ticking.

Charlie got stuck in the morning (9am?), knew he had a bothersome stick at dinner (red, itching), went to bed but couldn't sleep? Turned on bedroom lights at 2am, to see a big blister formed. Called ambulance and started fighting to save his leg
