Poor Trent found out the hard way, that cutting a toe nail too short can only mean bad things. It took 7 shots to numb his toe. I was in the room with him, & watching his face, smelling the smells, it all came back to me... The time Nic had to get his bone marrow tested. Room started to get blurry, I started swaying, my stomach started turning. I was obviously not meant for a medical career. Closed my eyes-- okay, deep breaths, in. out, in, out. okay, opening my eyes. doing okay, that smell, room starts to look diagonal... Mind if I step outside for a drink. Splash a little water on my face, more deep breaths. ahhh, went back in only to see a bloody toe. Okay, I'm going to sit here, & play on my phone. That seemed to work. Maybe next time I'll send Nic. I'd hate to pass out, when I'm not the one going through the procedure.

That does not look fun! I'd probably be the same way as you if I were in the same room. I would love to be a nurse, but don't think I could handle it.
