"In another case I know of, almost the whole of the first joint of a finger was crushed off, and the doctor was asked to amputate the stump of bone that protruded. Instead, he decided to educate the tissue to grow out to cover it and appear like a normal finger.
And she acted better than the man, for he was rosin' his head, and shoutin' he had no whiskey, and he didn't guess his knife was sharp enough to amputate my thumb, and none of us chewed, and the doctor was twenty miles away, and if he had only remembered to bring his ammonia well, he was screeching out 'most everything he knew in the world, and without arranging it any, neither.
He heard voices over his head. "Isn't bad at all...this leg wound.... I thought you said we'd have to amputate?" "Well, what's the matter with him, then?" "Maybe shell-shock...." A cold sweat of terror took hold of Andrews. He lay perfectly still with his eyes closed. Spasm after spasm of revolt went through him.
At 7.45 I dived the boat to sixty metres, at which depth the boat was steady. We had done our best with the wardroom-table, and upon this the patient was placed. I decided to amputate about four inches above the knee, where the flesh still seemed sound. I considered it impracticable to administer an anaesthetic, owing to my absolute inexperience in this matter.
She had some secret to discuss with the surgeon Otto. Had any change taken place in his condition? and did the leech intend to amputate his thumb, or even his hand? But, no! only yesterday he had been assured that he could save all five fingers, and his sorely mangled left foot too. The widow was better, and all hope of saving the Minorite's life had been relinquished two days ago.
"There," he said, surveying the bandages critically, and inwardly well pleased with his success; "at least that will do till you can see the doctor." "Are you sure you are quite through now?" asked Gerald, in mock submission. "You don't think it necessary to put the arm in a splint, or to fasten weights to it, or to amputate the first joint of the thumb?"
"Ethel!" he cried desperately. "If that ever happened again I should have to AMPUTATE YOU." Brent walked over to the window-seat where he had left his automobile coat and cap and picked them up. Ethel watched him quietly. "Chris! Come here!" He turned to her. "There! It's over! I suppose I HAVE been a little hard on you. All forgotten?" She held out her hand. He bent over it.
The marquis had soon satisfied himself that that relation was as yet unknown to him, and was all the better pleased with his devotion and tenderness. The inflammation continued, increased, spread, and at length the doctors determined to amputate. But the marquis was absolutely horrified at the idea shrank from it with invincible repugnance.
Shields, the most cheerful, strenuous, and popular of Company Commanders, would never fight again. He reached Chocques hospital with one leg almost blown off and the other badly shattered, and the Doctors decided to amputate the one at once.
