Cindy: Don’t Drill, Baby, Drill

I can’t top the closing situation/question that Cindy came up with on Facebook this afternoon. Seems she was have an manicure when … well, I’ll let Cindy tell the story: "Drill baby, drill takes on new meaning when your nail tech accidentally drills into the fleshy part of your thumb during a manicure." Yes, the manicurist drew blood. Again, Cindy: "But my tech happens to be graduating from Nursing School in June. I think she did it on purpose, so she could whip out the first-aid kit. Imagine my dismay when she had NO Disney Princess bandages." The tale prompted Liz to write that a dentist once accidentally slipped and drilled her cheek. Liz: "Really big ow when it was all over and the novocaine wore off." (Illustration: SR File Photo) 

Question: Have you ever been injured inadvertently by a manicurist, dentist, doctor, or other professional that medical or cosmetic professional?
