The last time I had a nasty cut I should have had stitches but I went to
late. When I showed up the ER after noon the next day the nurse
chastised me for not coming sooner, asking what made me think I didn't
need stitches right away. I told her the truth. I had had two Manhattans
so I could not drive, and I had a leg on lamb on the BBQ and I didn't
want to waste it. I had put a nice tight bandage on it and the bleeding
was under control. The doctor could not stitch it because it was too
late. He put some sort of bandage on it and it healed better and with
less scarring than if I had had stitches.
How do you try not to faint? It's not something most people can control.
