No stitches for you ,young man! Get me the gauze, my scissors, the medical tape and some antibiotic.How did this happen , anyway? Oh, Yes! You were doing something stupid. Did you forget to put gloves on? Well, this will teach you a lesson. You won't do this the next time! I wish I had brought home more butterflies from the hospital. Oh, Well! This will just have to do.
And the young man's name: Douglas What was he doing?: splitting kindling with his bare hands . How bad was he bleeding?: at least a paper towel full . How deep was the cut?: about a quarter of an inch deep, one inch wide!

I still have wound closures left over from when they took the staples out...do you need me to make a delivery?
