I had to take my oldest son to the podiatrist a few days ago. He had an ingrown toenail that just refused to heal. While we were waiting to be called I started drawing to keep from being bored to death. A
few days later, here is the finished sketch:
My son ended up having surgery to fix the nail, poor guy. He is such a stoic young man that he didn't even flinch or say a word during the surgery despite the anasthetic not having fully kicked in. (Yes, I did have a talk with him about communication and patient resposibility after I found that one out.)
What a great illustation considering the situation. Hope your son is feeling better…poor guy.
I had a similar surgery on a toenail about a year ago and I can attest to how painful it can be. Your son sounds like he handled the ordeal bravely!
