A new thumb print

A customer came today. He’d had an accident with his planer. “I told the Doctor to just stitch it up, but he said, ‘there’s nothing to stitch,’ so he took a piece off my leg and did a skin graft.” He showed me the wound on the tip of his thumb. The patch looked good, a nice healthy pink color. The question I didn’t dare ask him: Will he have hair growing out of his thumb?

You didn't ask? Now I will wake up in the middle of the night wondering. I think I'll ask my doctor. Isn't that what the nurses on call are for?
