RE: Frankie's Recovery And The Lasting Impact Of The Gunfight
This makes me queasy just thinking about it. Yuck. That wound must have been hell to recover from. I suppose it was good sense that farmer sold his farm and got out, with that hanging over him.
Howdy ginnyannette! yeah, the buckshot was still in him and he said he'd rather have it there than to have it dug out of him so he was in excruciating pain for quite awhile and back then of course they didn't have the strong pain medication available. They didn't even have blood available for transfusions, that's why the doc said he wouldn't make it.
Sorry, I didn't mean to make anyone queasy! There's a story in tomorrow's post that's alot worse though. lol.
