Narrative

I've been gone since Feb returning on April 5th so this didn't get reported. EE was helping to align a shim under a pillow block bearing when the pry bar slipped while tightening the belts causing the pillow block bearing to drop on EE's left thumb. EE has a non displaced fracture of distal phalanx and laceration without foreign body damage to nail.
