Deja Vu: The Stitching

So. Emily ran down and got a taxi, I hopped down the stairs with Mod, and Katie gathered our stuff. While we were going down the stairs, a Chinese lady from upstairs was coming down. She spoke excellent English and said she would come to the hospital with us, another stroke of luck. We went to the hospital where I sat with Katie and mom and Henos (the Chinese lady) to get stuff worked out. They took me to a room and numbed/examined the wound. Around this time my dad came in with the translator from the bus he had ridden on, so we now had three people who spoke english and Chinese. Yay ! We had to go and get and x-ray upstairs (meanwhile, the translator left). I got x-rays, which showed my bone to be okay, except for a few bone fragments. I then sat for a while with the anaesthetic wearing off, while things got figured out. We went to get stitches.

 This bit was really painful, because the anaesthetic had worn off and they couldn't give me more. I got 6 stitches, waited for meds, and left in a taxi with crutches. I am stuck inside.
