Rima in stitches...


My wife.... yes... Rima.....
As we all know all she cares about is cakes, kueh, cookies, purees, etc etc.

I don't know if it was the Backyardigan song in her head or if it was her Backyardigan-like movements in the kitchen... but she managed to injure herself quite badly today.

While cleaning up after doing fondant on a dummy cake for one of her orders, her arms swung around and hit her long bladed knife.. The knife slid down the counter, pointed end downwards and managed to scrape along her shin. (If I wasn't graphic enough: The knife is brand new). As luck might have it, the pointy end did not do any damage, but the blade did cut a 5cm long gash on her shin, blood gushing out, soaked towels, down to the bone...

Bottom line: Frantic calls to husband and sisters, husband ran out of a meeting, raced home, performed first aid, dropped off Sonia at Grand-ma, took Rima to the ER and 2 1/2 hours later she left with 8 stitches.

She can walk and is generally ok, but seems that the local anesthetic is wearing off and the stitches are starting to hurt. Donations can be sent to..... just kidding..

Baby, get well soon.... I have run out of chocolate chips for my office coffee break... xxx (sorry no pics guys, the camera kept slipping out of my hands with all that blood :) hehehe

Ouuuucchhhh.... your hubby's description of the accident really gave me cold shivers which I sometimes went through though got just small slits but with a sharp hanckel knife the pain is unbearable.
Rima, get well soon... take a break though that will be really hard (ku tahu jari-jari tu akan bergerak2 untuk pegang tepung, gula, chocs etc... pegang aja tak apa just to get off the short term withdrawal symptom...hehehe)
Really Rima, take care, have a speedy recovery.

DG said...

Kesian nya Rima....perhaps this incident is way of telling u take things a little slow in the kitchen n letting yr fingers n body rest? Hopefully the pain wont be so bad when u wake up in the morning.
