kradeelavit's not funny, but it is a little funny how some adults turn into actual children when they're the ones who have to be taken care of, lol.
my mom had to get stitches after slicing the web of muscle/skin between the thumb and pointer finger (it's been a weird hospital-for-other-people-full thanksgiving) and ohhh my goooood. ay yi yi she's so stubborn. we can pin most of that on being a surgeon's daughter. :P
[stares at the open wound] 'can we take you to the ER now?'
'[petulantly] no. >:('
'would you go tomorrow if i scheduled an appointment and it still hurts?' (duh)
'..........maybe.'
and
[sees her about to cut a pizza/hold scissors/etc IN THE BAD HAND with a determined look and gently takes the device] 'mom let me do that for you.'
etc.
she's earned the nickname of the 'honey badger' for being very protective; very generous, but oh my god when she gets stubborn about something especially Being Well. you know that old joke about farmers refusing to go to the hospital unless they're on death's literal doorstep? yeah. one of those cases.
