Really??

So I've had this really annoying (and very painful at times) "thing" on my right pointer finger since JANUARY! At first Matt and I thought it was a splinter or something and so I tried digging it out many a times. However, nothing ever came out. Sometimes it would be very painful to the touch and other times nada. Gradually it started getting a brownish, reddish dot that looked like a blood blister under the skin. The finger would swell to almost 2 times the size of my left hand one. So on and so on. I even asked my bro-in-law what it could be (he's in podiatry school). He guessed a sliver or a wart. I even made an appointment with the dermatologist to look at it next month.

Well, yesterday we're playing at the park for FHE and I decide to pick at it again. this is Gross sorry. Well pus or something starts coming out by the ton. Never happened before. Then a 1/4 INCH sliver of GLASS or plastic or something comes out! It was SO LONG! I couldn't believe that that was in there!!! Seriously, I've picked at the dumb thing so many times. Even with a needle and nothing ever looked like it was in there. Matt and I were laughing, like REALLY?! was that really in there for 7 months people?!!! lol guess so. Its still kind of painful so I'm not sure its all out. Hopefully it is and my dumb finger woes are all over. ;)

Glad it didn't turn into anything serious. Nikholi had a splinter in his foot that we had to take him to the doctor in order to remove. White puss came out and the doctors pulled a culture...only later to find out that he has a staph infection. Not only does Nikholi have staph, but Kambri has it too!!
