Haha benni still confused at what a supportive parent who let’s you choose things is
Poor Benni, still not used to the idea of having choices
Wait, why does Tanya need help? Is her foot still injured? Also, I can understand why Benninis confused by choices; he’s used to just be told to do something by adults and being expected to do it.
Well she was only stabbed in the foot yesterday story-wise. She still has the stitches in and it likely still hurts to put a lot of pressure on. The bandages were only taken off so it could breathe.
Has it really only been a day? I have a hard time keeping track of the passage of time.
Foot injuries, a deep puncture in Tanya’s case, take a little bit longer to heal due to the pressure and almost continuous flexing of the wound site. If there’s one thing I know too well it’s sutures and stab wounds…
…maybe a bullet hole or two…
In my mid-teens I was helping my Dad rebuild the back porch on our house. I managed to step on a 6″ building spike that went through the bottom of my sneaker, through my foot, and out the top of the sneaker.
It was three days before I could put weight on it, it kept breaking open and leaking for around a week after that, and it was still sore for close to a month.
Yikes!
On the plus side, doctors determined many years ago that one only needs a single tetnus shot and that it acts simmilar to childhood immunizations. Wish I’d known that about 35 years ago. Being a blademaker means I develope leaks frequently and the wife insists on being sure. 😏
Well, my previous tetanus shot was somewhere around 2nd grade… I was knocked down on the blacktop playground at school and shredded the palms of my hands and my knees (they were literally picking little rocks out of me with a tweezer)… That was around 1972.
The porch incident was 1984 and the Dr was one of those “best to be sure” guys, especially since the spike had been a bit rusty.
Do you still experience phantom pains?
I had a nail go through my foot and for decades occasionally I still feel it.
I do, but not from that.
The one that gives me the most problems is when I get a cramp in the big toe of my left foot that I lost back in 2001. 😉
Now we’ll see if Tanya has a restful night, or if she has more nightmares keeping her up.
the fox looks like she has a beard
The fluctuation of emotions I feel from this comic strip is absolute whiplash. 😭😊
