To all of us who wear a ring... You might want to take them off before jumping out of the boat.
It was a hot day on Stockton, my family decided to do some swimming. My wife entered the water by sliding from the gunwale of the boat. Her wedding rings caught the gunwale tie down.
She still has a finger with skin on it, but by the time I set her broken finger and cut her rings off, she was not happy. The bone above the first knuckle was broken. and had 3 more radial fractures according to the doctor. The doc said I did a good job, there was nothing he could do, just a splint.
The bad....She is a massage therapist.
The good...We are still married.
One more suggestion...act fast, when setting a finger, Never ask for permission, just do it.
At the end one the day I am blessed with a wife who can only slap me with one hand for 6 weeks or so.
Oh I did catch a couple fish too
