Excellent idea. Long overdue.

*giggling!*

..how could you???

uh-nuh...

make me! *runs away* ..

3x a day.. hm, 8AM - 2PM, 2:05PM - 8PM & 8:05PM to 7:55AM, right??

jessika... black-tar? yikes, you get an idea putting something inside that hole.. ewww!

but, allright.. I'll try if I can't find anything still. it has stopped bleeding, I think I've saw something shiny..

I'm afraid if my tweezers would just push it down more.. icky!

Well its not black-tar, its kind of a tarry substance though. I can't remember the name of it though I can remember what the jar looks like

I think you mean Denver mud I haven't thought of it in years.
Gina dear try flushing it out Run water from one side to the other.
I did just buy a ton of bubble wrap. And I have lots and lots of the packing peanuts. Just box her up and send her to me. These daughters you know!!!!

You are probably thinking of Ichthammol. My mom used that a long time ago.

I wouldn't mess with it. Call your Dr for an appointment. Let him look at it.

Ouch! Yes, you may want a doctor to take a look. I had a similar incident a number of years ago. I thought I got it, but after a couple days my foot was so sore I couldn't walk on it. Had to go to ER and they had to open up the cut to get the glass out and I was on crutches for a week.

Och, that can hurt, sometimes proxide can help wash it out???

I don't know if it's because I'm so pale, but I never see the glass whenever I get some in my foot. I just have to poke around a bit and I can hear it crunching in my foot LOL. Once I make myself bleed with the tweezers (not on purpose, but eventually it happens) I can see it better, and I take it right out.
