View Full Version : Uh-oh
Today I was playing basketball and I went up for a rebound and hit the corner of the rim and recieved a nice little cut on the top of my head. It was bleeding for a little bit. When I got home I washed it and showed it to my mom who is a RN and she said it was fine. It's not too big, less than a cm squared, I'm home on Easter Break now and she said I wouldn't need stiches or see a doctor. I leave for boot camp on the 14th of May, will this keep me from shipping at all? Everyone told me it is just a small cut and not to be worried about it. I'm goign to show my recruiter once I get back to school and I have my reserve meeting on Friday.

Without seeing it myself, based on what you say, I wouldn't worry about it. I would show my recruiter though! You'll be ok, keep it tough Poolee! ;)
