Am I going to die???

As you know, before I started my business with my husband I worked in another job, which required a lot of extraneous physical labor from me. Although my body was getting into shape, it was also wearing and tearing my body and one of the things it did was mess up my toe!! I came home one day and took my shoes off my achy feet and when I looked down, my toenail on my left foot was black?!!! I freaked and didn't know what happened, but after gaining my composer, I remembered that I kept tripping on the sidewalks when I was making my deliveries and think that the trauma from that caused my toe to get injured? I told my managers, but they said it was all part of the job and I just needed to push through the pain and let my body get used to it. So I continued working, until I left to start my work with my husband and it's been three months later, but my toenail is still black and it's starting to cause leg pain? It hurts when I wear closed toe shoes or walk on it a lot so today, I couldn't take it anymore and I told my husband to cut it off!! I would go to the Doctors, but we don't have health insurance and considering our business is actually upside down right now, we can't really afford such a luxury as going to the doctors, so we did the next best thing and I dubbed my husband a "Doctor" for the day and told him to make my pain go away. Being the wonderful and supportive husband that he is, he put on his pretend Doctor hat and started cutting away at the dead nail and scraping out the old dry blood that apparently was the culprit for all my pain. Of course he took sanitary procedures to ensure the health and safety of preserving my toe and sterilized all his tools which was basically a nail clipper and one of those wooden toe picks that look like giant tooth picks. Then, he got rubbing alcohol and hydrogen peroxide to kill any germs or bacteria that might have developed under my nail.

After he put the peroxide on, he said my toe started fizzing and that it was killing all the germs, then he elevated my leg and gave me a cold pack to put on my foot to help with the pain. I have to say Doctor Marko is quite good at his job, because my toe feels much better than what it did earlier although it is still sore. On the plus side, I got to eat ice cream afterwards as my reward for being good during the procedure..yay! 

I love my husband so much, because truth be told, I started freaking out and thought I was going to die?!!!!
