I'd say that it was a bit more than a boo boo. I wonder how loud you would cry for mommy with a similar wound, about to have your foot sawn off with no anesthetic and knowing that you would likely lose what was left of your leg to gangrene anyway. It's easy to see why a quick death would have been preferable.
