I do have to admit that they are a little creepy...

Of course, you are all right -- and we all know about Tony Iommi from Sabbath who played after having two fingertips cut off. (ouch...)
In fact, it's getting to the point where I'm looking forward to it, and just want to get it out of the way. Done. Then, I can get on with my life -- again.
But, be warned, anyone visiting my house will never know when I'm going to pull "the cut finger routine"... Oh yeah... I think I'm going to get a big knife and attach a bloody 'finger' sticking out the side ... and let the games begin!  Then, I'll torture them with some three-fingered violin playing!
Thanks for the support & friendship. You have helped.

| I used to think snakes --drowning --demonic clowns with chainsaws were my biggest fears that kept me up at night but going to Eastern State Penitentiary with my 17 year old great niece for the Terror Behind The Walls haunted house event--getting totally lost ( thanks to map quest ) in downtown Phily --now don't get me wrong --Philly is a beautiful city bu getting lost the DAY AFTER The Phillies won the pennant was not the time to be lost in Philly --rooting & hollering on the street --I KNOW I turned the wrong way down 1 way streets 3 times & then the klunker was driving past the pizza place & it had bars on the windows--so m y new fear that'll be keeping me up at night --going past Eagles stadium 3 times thinking I was going the right way & was just going around in a circle |

Whiskey Woman --I feel your pain --I myself haven't lost a limb but I told ya about my finger surgery & my finger will never be the same but back to you--you are such a strong person & I know you'll pull through with flying colors--yes it IS just a finger but YOU are so much more than 1 finger--as long as you have your heart & that sweet personality of yours then you shoudn't fear anything --just remember I'm a PM away for anything you need --shoulder --ears or just being there --you may feel like you're all alone but we ( the Judas Priest family ) are with you 100 % all the way--good luck my friend & keep your chin up-- I know it'll be hard but you're too wonderful of a human being to be down for too long

But... as Halloween draws closer, I am getting really scared to have my finger amputated. Sorry if I keep bringing this up here and there, and I know it's 'only a finger' ... and I know things could be worse. But, it's MY finger, and the loss of my violin & guitar ... and when I think about them cutting it off, I feel nauseous! I still have two weeks to go, and each day I get worse.

Hi there WW...I'm sorry your having such a tough time with what your going through...I've never had to go through something like that before, so I really don't know what to say other than you are in my prayers...did you ever check out the site I sent you RachelBartonPine.com She, like yourself, a violinist who also has a love for Metal had an accident involving a train in the Chicago area that almost killed her. Now she has moved on to wonderful things and is still playing. You're a strong woman, you've already been through a lot, I really don't think there's anything you couldn't handle!!!

Mordecai Peter Centennial Brown (October 19, 1876 – February 14, 1948), nicknamed "Three Finger", was an American Major League Baseball pitcher at the turn of the 20th century. Due to a farm-machinery accident in his youth, Brown lost parts of two fingers on his right hand and eventually acquired his nickname as a result. Overcoming this handicap and turning it to his advantage, he became one of the elite pitchers of his era.
NOW WHISKEYWOMAN, I AM CERTIANLY NOT WISHING ANYTHING BAD TO HAPPEN TO YOU, BUT AS THE EXPRESSION GOES, WHEN SOMETHING BAD HAPPENS AND ONE DOOR CLOSES, ANOTHER ONE OPENS.

Don't get me wrong --I like the funny ones but when you go to Haunted Houses you get the demonic looking ones who always try to pinch you--my Dear 'ol Dad took me to Barnum & Bailey's Circus when I was 5 or so & this clown came up to me & squirted me with his flower & honked his red nose at me--I think it was because I was 5 but anyway that scared the stuffin's out of me --then like you mention there was that Stephen King movie "IT"--EEEEEEEWWWWW !! |
