xylie-- the things our dh's put us thru! quick thinking on your part. if you check it in a bit and it hasn't quit bleeding, i'd suggest a trip to the er. also, check to be sure he's not getting bleeding under the skin--it will look puffed up like a large blood blister. please tell me he is not on coumadin!
missy-- are you going to send me the fabric requirements and the directions, puleez?
rita'smom--do you have music? and or tv? a small refrigerator for fruit, veggies and ice for your water? and telephone, so you don't have to jump up to get it/ find it in another room?
