On Thursday, May 29, 2025, I had worked all day on his computer and from 5:00-7:00 p.m. was finishing off a hole in sheetrock and paneling that the plumber cut out to plumb the washing machine. I finished the larger piece and was cutting the smaller piece on a table saw. I needed ¼” more off the depth , but when I was cutting it off, the piece flipped, and my hand was drawn into the saw. Luckily, the saw blade was only extended ¼” or more damage would have occurred. Three fingers were affected. All were cut almost cut off and hanging.
Here is picture of my hand

Here is what it looks like now
I had a great surgeon and she was able to save all my fingers.
