Amateur surgery


so these guys, living in Fort Lauderdale, find a girl with a harpoon or something through her leg,and instead of finding a local hospital equipped with competent surgeons and ample supplies of anasthetics and anti-biotics, decide to work on it themselves. What class!

It's in the original novel. There were bad guys out there who had tried to kill her, So McGee and Meyer wanted to keep her in low profile for a while. In the old days people didn't bolt to the ER every time they got hurt, and urgent care centers didn't exist yet. I remember my dad slicing his shin to the bone when the kick starter of his Harley-Davidson slipped. He cauterized it with a soldering iron and bandaged it himself. No worries.
