Nursery only finds child's severed finger when cleaning the floor
  • A father went to pick his daughter up from nursery after a minor “nick”, only to discover that she had severed her finger and nurses had not realised until they discovered it on the floor.
Pavel Dedek, 37, turned up at the private £900-a-month crèche to discover his daughter Sophie, who is just nine months old, with her hand wrapped in a blood-soaked towel and part of her finger in a cup of ice.

Staff allegedly failed to realise she had lost 1cm of her fingertip until someone spotted it on the floor while they were cleaning, according to The Daily Mail.

An ambulance was not on its' way so he rushed her to A&E himself, where despite a two-and-a-half hour operation surgeons could not reattach the top of her digit which had been cut at the second joint.

On the brightside, she's only 9 months old, so she should be able to regrow it.
