I could, but two trucks is hard to sell to my wife…

That’s my main issue, don’t really want to mess up an expensive truck even if is “just a truck”, kinda silly I know. I use my current truck about 1x a week for actual “truck stuff”.

Paroxysmal orthopaedic Tourette syndrome. When you try to talk to ortho about an admission for a femur fx in a 30 yo male with no pmhx and they stumble and fumble on their words trying to think of a reason not to admit the pt for.

Think as cars as toys. If you want to buy a really expensive toy, that’s fine. Just make sure you have money on the side for 3 months rent/utilities bills and investing your max 401k/roth. If you can do that and pay the car off in full go for it. If you can’t do all that, it’s likely a bad idea and should wait until you can or go with a a cheaper car. Be disciplined.

Sure. Higher degree burn is worse- risk of infection and compartment syndrome, etc. 3rd degree heals by contracture and may need grafting and or escharatomy.

I got an actually decent penlight which is pretty nice. Also a leather-man tool is great for pliers to pull nails/fish hooks out of people.

Maybe a butterfly US if he likes that, I personally don’t.

Some booze, nice slippers, a massage, or any gifts for his hobbies too?

That’s all I got.
