NIGHT FROM ****

KIDS HAD DINNER WITH THEIR DAD .. CAME HOME GOT PJS ON AND READ A STORY

THEN THE PHONE RANG!

IT WAS MOM TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT ALL I NEEDED AT WALMART

THE KIDS WHO WERE CALM BEFORE STARTED RUNNING..

NOT SO BAD.. BUT THEY WERE GOING AROUND THE CORNER INTO A HALL WAY..


I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT POSESSED DS TO DO THIS BUT HE GRABBED THE BACK OF HIS BROTHERS HEAD AND

WHAM! RIGHT INT TO THE WALL.. MIND YOU MY SON IS 3 AND HIS BROTHER TWO..



IT WAS LIKE SLOW MOTION I THREW DOWN THE PHONE AND RAN TO GET MY SON..

WHO HAD A GASH ON HIS BOTTOM LIP DOWN TO HIS CHIN..( THE SIZE OF MY PINKY NAIL..)

THE PROBLEM WAS IT WAS CUT WIDE OPEN.. AND I WAS SCARED HE NEEDED STITCHES.

I RAN TO MY NEIGHBOR .. BABY IN HAND.. THE OTHER TWO WERE STANDING IN THE HALL WAY..


BY THE TIME SHE ANSWERED IT HAD ALMOST STOPPED BLEEDING.. BUT IT WAS SO SWOLLEN..AND
HE WAS SO TIRED BY THAT POINT.. I HEALD ICE ON IT AND THEN GAVE HIM TYLONOL.. AND THE LAST THING
BEFORE BED WAS NEOSPORIN..

HE LOOKED BETTER TODAY BUT LOOKING AT THE GASH.. I CAN ONLY THINK WOW.. MY BABIE..

I EVEN TOOK PICTURES SO THAT MY XH DOESNT SAY ANYTHING IN COURT ABOUT MY DECISION NOT TO TAKE HIM TO THE HOSPITAL..

I HOPE I MADE THE RIGHT ONE.. THIS IS THE FIRST BAD THING HAPENING IN MY CARE!!

 

oh my! Sounds like you made a good decision and he will heal just fine.....but I understand the nerves and emotional stress from a hurt child. Hope today is better!

 

i'm sorry you had such a rough night.

i think you made a good choice and did what you could

if you're worried about xh, can you take him to the ped for a follow up visit to get a doctor's note backing you up?

big hug...hope he heals soon.

:love0028:

 

HUGS TO YOU

 

Isn't it just amazing how wonderful children turn into wild beasts when the phone rings?

Hope everyone is doing ok today.

Once the wound starts to heal.................if you are concerned about scaring...............put Aquaphor on it several times a day every day until you can't see it anymore. That stuff works wonders!!!!

 

WOW! THAT SUCKS!

I'M SORRY YOU HAD SUCH A BAD NIGHT - YOUR MOM MUST HAVE BEEN WORRIED!

HOPE HE HEALS SOON!!! :hug99:
