Thanks Sheila. Just not with it, cause yesterday, after the dance show, totally exhausted, jammed finger of other hand in the door, causing it to burst the skin open. As if things are bad enough... trying not to have a pity party! Thumb had me worried cause after 2 days it gaped open about 1cm revealing inside gooey yuck. I think because it swelled up. I was going to show a friend who is a nurse but had a day in bed with h/a and then the show. By the next day it looked like it was starting to heal over, so as long as I keep it clean, I think it will mend.
