A couple of months ago I cut my leg open on some broken glass while taking the trash out to the curb. It was completely my own fault as I knew there was broken glass in the trash, and even though I was very careful I managed to fillet my leg open about 3 inches.
I quickly washed it out, called for a ride to the hospital, and while I waited I went through whatever dressing supplies I had to quickly cover it up. It was in an awkward place on my leg so I only could use one hand to do the dressing. It wasn't exactly a professional looking job, but hey, it was covered.
I got to the ER and who else is going to put in my stitches? My past nursing instructor of course! In typical instructor fashion, she took one look at me and said, "Did YOU do that dressing?" As I tried to explain she cut me off by saying "That is terrible! You call that a dressing?" Of course she couldn't hide the smirk on her face and I couldn't stop laughing.
Note to self: Always keep real dressing supplies on hand for emergencies.
