:: While chopping up a piece of tomato tonight, I sliced off a small portion of the top of my left thumb with the knife. Damn thing wouldn't stop bleeding for about an hour. Now it's just throbbing. Some peoples' kids.

Posted by: sharon at February 24, 2004 06:26 AMRandy! That's awful! Did you go to the hospital? Don't let that get infected. You poor thing.
Posted by: Jenny at February 24, 2004 12:42 PMSharon and Jenny, thank you for your words of support. The thumb is bandaged today, and still hurts a bit, but I'm being careful, I promise!
Posted by: rpr at February 24, 2004 02:33 PMHey Randy I never got to check your site the last couple of days and was shocked to see you could have lost a thumb. Yikes, be careful son! I don't like reading such things when I am over 800 miles away and can't get over to give you a hand---oops! I mean lend you a hand. Not nice to give your elderly parents more things to worry about. Take care. Luv ya! Mom & Dad

S'Ok.....it'll be fine, but you might lose the feeling in the tip of the thumb...do you use the thumb for any exotic chords? Piano wise, It makes no difference, 'cause I hardly ever use my thumb tips to play anymore.....
