Hilarious!
I was not entirely comfortable with that description. Were I the parent, I would try to ignore that odd statement as I gathered more facts about the accident. We can speculate what ‘loved on’ means a different day. Women can still get away with remarks like that (without getting stared at) more easily than men.

“Where did you find that it was only a piece of skin that was cut off? This article is claiming the tip was severed.”
******************************************************************
Like much of what is passed off as journalism today, the description of what was “severed” was as clear as mud.
I did not take the writing “...fingertip, which was severed below the fingernail...” to mean the entire tip (bone, skin & fingernail) of the finger was excised at a point located “behind” where the fingernail began but in “front” of the first joint in that finger. Instead I took it to mean that some skin BELOW (set your fingers flat on your keyboard and ponder the portion of the fingers that are below your fingernails—that portion is mostly just essentially skin). So I think when the amazing little girl managed to close the door on her finger some of her skin was sheared off. This was not an unusual accident for kids (but usually boys) to have.
Mail for you.
That is a hoot! Love the one white guy, Dan Smith. ;-)
I’ve known a couple named Charity, and at least two Patiences that I can think of.
