Amanda asked:


The large needles are hooked at the tips and there are also tons of tiny ones that I can barely see. Please help. I took a step backwards and ran into the cactus.

i was cleaning my yard, cutting down cacti. when one of the arms fell on my hand. it was a cane cholla. and the needles went deep in thumb. it was so deep, it took me about 15 minutes to get the thorns out. as time goes along, the pain is getting worse. i cant bend my thumb, index fingers. the pain is so intense, it runs all through my hand, up to my elbow. i had to get my son to type this for me. what can i do to make the unbearable pain stop?

My son was playing in our friend’s backyard and my stupid ( believe me I am totally pissed off at him right now ) husband wasn’t watching him when he tripped and fell into their cactus tree. When I arrived at the house he was naked in the backyard and everybody was trying to pull out the needles from his side and hands.

I pulled out some more , but it was so hard because some had broken off into his skin. My poor baby boy. I gave him Motrin for the pain and bathed him for over an hour to soak and wash away anything lef tin his skin.

The doctor on call said to put Elmer’s glue where we thought there might be some inside still and pull it off tomorrow. Only problem with that is we don’t own any glue nor have any money to buy any.

My son is doing fine right now and I doesn’t seem to be in any pain and nor do I see any more needles in him after the long bath he took.

Does anybody have any suggestions, that have been in this situation????

Please

Thanks
No, we can’t afford to buy anything currently.
I got about 30 cent to our name.

That is what happens to completely disabled Veteran families who can not work any more.
After the 10th of the month the bills are paid and food in the fridge, we don’t ANY MONEY left over.
There is a bit of FYI for those people who wanted to be nosey and sarcastic about why we can’t afford the glue.
My job is to take care of of my husband who can barely walk some days and take care of our home and our precious son.

Create a video blog…instantly.

Person asked:


At night, my big toe twitches and talks to me. It says that he is very smelly and needs a wash. the problem is is that i dont have indoor plumbing and that i live in a cactus, so therefore i cannot wash him. i can barely find food for myself which is just cactus needles. but im worried about my toe too much. what happens when he gets too smelly???
