I can laugh about it now, but at the time every day just seemed to be one thing after another caused by someone's incompetence! I'm still working on a complaint letter that won't end up with me being sued for libel or something. At least Zoe is too young to remember any of it. I, on the other hand have got loads more grey hairs and a couple more wrinkles ;-) Anyway, here is a pictorial record of our journey (but entirely suitable for those of a delicate disposition)...
This photo was taken about three hours after she'd come round from the general anaesthetic, which probably accounts for the slightly dopey look. Note the gigantic bandage, which was supposed to stay on for ten days, but didn't even last ten hours!
We took Zoe to the dressings clinic and got a much better dressing put on by someone who actually knew what they were doing. As you can see, having a bandage on didn't dampen her spirits much!
And it didn't stop her getting about and having fun either! I'm amazed by how well it has healed up, even though we were told that babies have incredible regenerative powers. This last picture was taken four weeks after the accident, (it's her index finger that was hurt) and it just astounds me that only four weeks before, the top of her finger was literally hanging off!
