Update on Sarah....

I took Sarah to the doctor today. There really wasn't much he could do that we already thought of doing. He did prescribe an ointment to be applied three times a day. Told us to keep the wound clean. He sent her for an x-ray just to be sure she didn't break any small bones in the finger. At the hospital they didn't send her to get a cast or splint or anything, so I'm assuming that there wasn't anything broken. He also gave her a tetanus shot. He said that he wanted to see her again in 2 weeks. And that he might decide to send her to "plastics" at that time, but he didn't think it was necessary. He said there didn't appear to be any nerve damage. Her finger tip is still swollen and he said he highly doubted her finger nail would grow back since there was "root" damage....but you never know. Poor thing is in denial that her finger nail won't ever grow back. But as they say miracles happen, only God is in control of that. She's in good spirits, only slightly depressed about the nail. But like I said she's holding out hope. God love her! Oh and thanks for all the prayers...God is good!
