Stitches. Наложение швов

Friend of mine cut his forehead jumping in a swimming pool. We went to ER (note: they don&call it Emergency Room anymore) and had to wait for 4 hours. We drove back home and put stitches by ourselves using regular sewing thread and thickest (!) needle. Six month later—no scar at all. Приятель, прыгнув в бассейн рассек лоб. В Американском госпитале очередь на 4 часа. Зашили сами обычной ниткой и толстой иголкой. Насегодня—шрама не видно.
