what do you think finger over ring? mmmmm
the moral of the story is if you're going to have your finger cut, at least don't lose the ring.

In my opinion that's just crazy. Does he seriously think that the ring means
that much to his wife. I also think it's crazy that the doctors lost the ring
you would think that the first thing on there mind would be to keep track of the
ring after what the guy went through to save it, it sound kind of a little bit
disrespectful, But funny as heck.

you can replace the ring but not the finger and then loosing the ring after all that is just funny. i think i would be making the docs replace it for loosing it in the first place.

What a moron....good gracious, why would you sacrifice your finger for a wedding band? You can put a ring back together if you take it to a jeweler, what do you think they do when they have to enlarge a ring? They cut it and insert a section! Sheesh...idiot.
