^Cotton, q-tips, and bandaid- just in case



^tripple antibiotic and gloves



^surgical tape and suture tape



^tweesers, cuticle cutter, crochet assister (purple handle), a weird cuticle thing, and clamps all soaking in 91% alcohol



^the whole field at my kitchen sink.

Good and bad news. My hubby said her foot isnt bad enough to have puss inside! but he didnt mention till after. I dont know though. This is a pic of before.






V And the other foot that is not so bad V





he got the scab looking knot off and then told me he cant see anything but meat. I was SOOOOOOO mad. I didnt know! It took 9 minutes total to open, close and bandage.
