- jonathanwallace 16y agoGood thing you don't. Stitch away. Just stick to friends and/or people who won't sue you.
- steverb 16y agoOr yourself. Stitches aren't that hard to do. If you can get a hold of a medical stapler they're even easier.
- CodeMage 16y agoSure, as long as you don't claim you have an M.D. and I don't care that you don't, then we're okay.

- joe_the_user 16y agoIt's more like if someone stitches me up, in an emergency, after warning me they aren't a doctor, they will be sued by the AMA for "doctor-level work".
- jrockway 16y agoNo, not really. This is more like if you're dying and someone gives you CPR but didn't pay $20 to renew their CPR certification, the CPR certification board goes after them for "practicing lifesaving without a license". In other words, utter fucking bullshit.
- Natsu 16y agoYou're right, this is why we have "Good Samaritan" laws to protect people who are trying to help people in an emergency. That said, it's definitely not a bad idea to keep your CPR training up to date. Mine was renewed last December.
- Confusion 16y agoYou say "No, not really", but I think you are in full agreement with your parent, who also sketched an instance of something ridiculous.
