Kevin called last night to let me know he had cut off the back pads of two of his fingertips!  Seems they were making homemade french fries and one of the potatoes got stuck in the cutting device.  Kevin tried to force the potato by pushing on it and pushed too hard and too far, slicing off the pads of his right ring finger and pinkie finger.  The hospital was able to reattach the pad on his pinkie as it was still partially attached, but the ring finger pad was completely off.  Since they didn’t take that pad with them to the hospital (what were they thinking?!), all the hospital could do was bandage it up.  Kevin will now have to see a hand specialist who will attempt a skin graft to repair it.  So he’s loaded up with antibiotics, vicodin and lots of gauze to soak up the blood.  Major oops!
