Oh, and by the way, I also had eye surgery on Thursday.  
All went well with that, and I can now see clearly out of my right eye again. 

the procedure was vitrectomy.  The fluid in the eye was removed and replaced.  No more floaters.

the steri strips will eventually come offl  

Moral of this story:  

be careful whild grinding:

this is the half of the 10 inch grinding wheel that did the damage to my left hand.

ROFL. I understand that I dont panic until its all settles then I fall apart for a few minutes. Good to hear it will heal
Comment by George R Naugle on Tuesday

It should heal OK, Jan.  Noyhing broken.  Just a heck of a laceration with lots of blood to clean up.  I am fortunate in being married to a woman who doesn"t panic when I do something dumb like this

Comment by Jan Carter on Tuesday
George I am so sorry to hear about this! Is it going to heal with full use? Always scares me when Donnie is on the grinder so I dont go down and watch that part
