The Worst Nine Stitches

So today I put in the set of stitches from hell!!!   So, it's Thanksgiving, and we were not terribly busy.  A 10 year old girl came in after having stepped on a busted beer bottle at her families gathering.  I have put in stitches in a 5yo that did better that this girl did.  She sat on her foot and would not let us get started.  I had to put on my stern voice and my serious face and get that foot out from under her so that we could put in 9 stitches to the sole of her foot.

"It doesn’t get much better than Arkansas Children’s Hospital.  The residents are all so friendly and are a very tight-knit group! Also, the faculty is always so supportive and really value resident education."
