Two days ago my husband managed to drop a concrete block on his foot at work. I'm pretty sure that at least two of his toes are broken!
This man is so stubborn that he will not go seek medical attention for his foot. He's in so much pain that he rummaged through the cupboards until he found some Darvocet that I had taken for pain management when I had a root canal. Now don't you think that if he's in enough pain to take that heavy of a pain killer that he'd seek some medical attention? Heck no!
He told me that he was unloading this concrete from his work truck and he lost his grip on one of the pieces and it landed right across his toes. At the time he knew that it was bleeding because he could feel the warmth from the blood in his sock. This happened right around 7:00 am. Did he take his shoe and sock off to see how much damage had been done? No! He sat down for a moment to catch his breath and then he continued to work......all day long! He didn't look at his foot until he came home that night!
He literally cannot put any pressure on the front of his foot and he walks to the side of his foot so that his toes never touch the ground. I'd say this is a problem. He's stubborn as a mule! The next time you see him tell him he should go have the Dr. take a look at it!!!

Curt told me about it last night. I can't believe he continued with work the rest of the day! You better believe I would have been at the doctor asking for drugs! These guys - they think life will end if they don't work due to injury!
maybe some steel toe shoes would be a good investment lol
