Mark, just read the whole post. I guess I guessed it was the end of a finger. Some of us will now be using full face shields.
Thanks for reinforcing safety by relating what must be a most painful and complex injury. "Rule number 1....Obey all rules!" And that applies to Doctor's instructions. But I believe
in demanding good pain killers ! Wishing you a full and speedy return to full health and confidence in the future.
