livendive 8 #6 May 10, 2006 I've had injury-related stitches in my lower lip, chin (twice), right thumb, both palms (multiple times each, including twice when I did my own sewing), and left foot. Also surgery-related stitches (or staples) in my right eyelid, right knee, left hip, and left shoulder (thrice). There are probably a couple more I'm not remembering.

selbbub78 0 #7 May 10, 2006 I tore my aorta, and I have a pretty cool femur scar. The scare on my leg looks like a lightning bolt. It's kinda cool.
