12 Stitches

Monday night playing street hockey I managed to run my face into my friend’s forehead, with unfortunate results. My lip ripped almost completely through about one inch up towards my eye. A quick trip to the ER resulted in me receiving 12 stitches (some inside my mouth, some outside) and a lecture from the Doctor about not wearing a helmet and facemask. Who wears a helmet and facesmask playing street hockey? If you’re really a disturbed individual and want to see a “before” picture, click here.

    I checked out the before picture and almost lost my hamburger from lunch. The doctors did an amazing job.

    Wow Jared! They did a great job of stitching your lip. I let out a cheer for you when I saw the before picture, good work!
    In regards to your friend and the possible concussion…have you ever seen the TV show the office? I think that Dwight had a similar experience…
