1st ER Visit

Little man was getting on the playground equipment at school today & slipped & fell & cut his lip open. The teacher brought him to the clinic & blood was everywhere. Luckily, Andrea is the Health Clinic Aide & immediately took him to the ER! He was such a brave little boy, especially when the anesthetic didn't work. They injected it into the wounded area & it sprayed out the other end. This is right after they were done pulling & prodding his poor mouth & putting around 10 stitches in his lip/mouth area. Yes, he is in pain, & yes, that is blood on his shirt!
The fall was so hard that his cheek is bruised! We went home after the hospital to change clothes & then picked up a milkshake & fries for lunch. He went back to school a "hero," showing everyone his stitches & finished out the day.
