My big birthday drama

After eating dinner yesterday(Monday May 2th) I was going to put the leftover pineapple in box. It was half open and I just neede to remove the lid-thingy. In seconds the can and the pineapple flew out of my hands and I graped my finger on instinct and diden`t know if I had hurt myself. Luckely for me a friend of mine(we share kitchen) were there and she found a paper to me and than I had to take a small look at my finger. It was abit bad, I thnk. I only took a sneakpeak at it(I dislike watching my own cuts). So my friend (she knew just as little as I did about what we should do) ran down the hall to another friend, but she wasen`t in. So we went down stairs hopefully there would be someone there. While we were looking for someone who seemed capable, my friend said: Only there were a nursing student around. And I thought of a friend who lives in the second floor and is just that. So we went up to her room and knocked hoping she would be in.
She was and she looked at the wound and nursed it abit. She said we should go to the ER(legevakten) and have them look at it.
Just so you know she is only in her first year of nursing school and haven`t gotten to the part were you learn when you need to stich or not.
Well we got to the emergency and filled out a form and waited for almost an hour and than they looked at it and told us to wait for a doctor to look at it.
So we waited, and waited, and waited, and waited. And when we had waited almost 4,5 hours(from the moment we got there) the doctor called my name and looked at it.
She said I needed stiches. I`m thinking; No! She`s kidding! Its not that bad. But she wasen`t kidding. I got some anesthesia just around my left pointy finger and after a little while it went all numb. I choise to look the other way so that I diden`t have to see the doctor and the nurse stiching together my finger. My friend on the other hand loved that she got so see it. You know its not that far away and she may be doing that herself.
I got home by 11.30 ish but needed like an hour to calm down and be ready to go to bed. I got to bed and had a short but good sleep.
Thank you Jesus.
What hits me is how calm I were and the peace I had through all my waiting yesterday.
Praise Jesus for that! =)
