   Sorry to hear about all of that! =( You're just like me, and my wife, and   
   my father... in being reluctant to go to the doctor. My recipe would be to   
   wait unless it starts to feel worse or you get a fever. Reminds me of my   
   boxing days. I never got caught with anything serious, but there were   
   people got knocked out, including shiners, all the time.

   Oh, maybe you could spring this as a joke in case the daughter hasn't seen   
   it yet? =)

   It will come! Don't you worry, when you are ready for it, the gaylord will   
   come!
