My wife cut her foot pretty severely a little more than four years ago. Here’s that journey:
-Ambulance transport from Kerikeri to Whangerai Hospital. Cost: nil
-X-rays. Cost: nil
-A total of eight staples to close two cuts. Cost: nil
-Perscriptions for antibiotics and pain meds: Cost: nil
-Ambulance service from the hospital back to our house: Cost: nil
-Loan of a pair of crutches from ambulance service: Cost: nil
-Two home visits by a nurse from the local GP: Cost: nil
-Removal of staples. Cost: nil
It can be done.
Hope your kid’s ok, Fig.
