No Do-Overs – Andy Young’s Story

Unfortunately, in his hurry, he says he used the wrong tool. “My neighbour has a table saw I’d been using, but he wasn’t home and I didn’t want to wait, so I used my circular saw.” The saw skipped, taking off Andy’s left index and middle fingers and the tip of his pinkie. The injury caused nerve and tendon damage to his left hand. “I know I’m lucky. I will be able to do most things in my life again. But do I wish I had waited an hour? Yeah. You don’t get a do over.”
