Last Nights Adventure

Cuts, blood and the like. I am finding out it is a good thing I am not going to be a doctor. My husband come home from basketball last night with his lower eyelid cut!. A guys finger had poked his eye and the fingernail gave him the cut. I still cringe just thinking about it. I drove him 15 minutes to a Cox care center, but they had closed 10 minutes before we got there (go figure), then I wanted to take him to the hospital but he would not let me! I finally convinced him to at least go to walmart to get something to clean his eye out with. Wouldn't you know it, there is nothing at walmart that is meant to deal with a cut near/on your eye, so he grabs a cleaner that is meant for disinfecting contact lenses. On the way out I take another look at his eye and see that his EYEBALL is cut! This is when I start panicking (wouldn't you?). "I know" is all he said. I was about ready to kidnap my own husband and take him to the hospital (an hour away). He kept saying he was fine and that his body was telling him he was okay. He is so stubborn at times. When we got back to his parents place (we are living with them until we move in a week) and his mom was really worried too, but his dad was so relaxed about it. What is it with men and thinking they are invincible? This morning he still did not go to a doctor. One of his majors was Sports Management, and he said that in the classes there he learned how to deal with this kind of injury. I'm still worried. It's about all I can think about. Oh, it hurts to think about what it would feel like if that happened to me!
