What ever you do, do not PUSH trash cans....my daughter got a compound

the driveway so she could pull her car in, the wheels dug in and she
fell with the rim of the can cutting across the bridge of her nose. The
plastic surgeon dug out pieces of plastic and said she was the third
person he had operated on for the same sort of injury.

My condolences to your daughter.

That said,I'd never have thought of that, and you may
have helped a lot of people by writing it to the list.

Maybe the government needs to mandate the companies
post a warning sticker "Do not push trash can while
sleeping or in bath tub with hair dryer energized".

Her wound was pretty ugly, and came within a hair of her eye....she had
a good surgeon and healed up with no complications. She dialed 911 and
then thought better of it, wanting to select her own surgeon rather than
wind up with whomever was on call in ER....cop came out because she had
hung up on 911, and he grilled her to find out whether she had been
abused. Didn't even stick around until her MIL arrived to take her to
doc.

I've been a nurse and worked on safety committees and never ever heard
of such an injury before. She had fluid seeping through dressings after
surgery for four or five days, and I worried about spinal fluid from a
hidden skull fx. Being a nurse is usually good, but I know the bad
stuff to worry about )
