On Tuesday night I was at church meeting with someone for pastoral counseling. About a third of the way into our time together I looked down at my left hand and I was, to say the least, somewhat surprised.
Most of the back of my hand and half of two of my fingers looked like a fresh bruise – blood was pooling in my hand. Later, when I got home the hand was swelling, especially in the space between the knuckles of the first two fingers.
This picture was taken Wednesday morning after a lot of the swelling had gone down.
There’s a little pain, but it’s slight.
All Betty and I can think of is somehow a blood vessel broke (I don’t remember hitting it) or I was bitten by something ( a spider?). Since I was bit by a spider on my ankle when I was a kid I don’t think I was bit. So, the only thing I can think of it a broken blood vessel.
Weird, huh?

As long as it's not painful Dan; though I think it's worth seeing a doctor.
Spooky though ~
My mothering law had this, her hands tired bruised and in time her eyes got red from rust blood vessels. The doctor said that it was some sort of medication reaction/allergy and it did require treatment.
Not sure this is the same, but if it doesn't disaappear quickl, get it checked!
Is it better. Mark is concerned it could be some kind of blood infection.
Hmmm. That is strange. Wish I would have read this post before so I could have checked out your hand. Next time go to the doctor. Don't be messing around with one of our best volunteers. ;) Love ya
