Trenton's Accident


Yesterday was not a good day.... Trenton fell and had to go to the ER for stitches. I was bringing groceries into the house and he was watching from inside the doorway. When I went to open the door, he lost his balance and fell right outside on the stoop. As he stood up, I saw a huge gash on his forehead and blood dripping down... it was so sad. He was crying pretty hard. I got him immediately in the car and off to the hospital. They cleaned it, wrapped him up on a special stretcher, and then the doctor gave him six stitches. We go back on Sunday to get them taken out.
Although I feel horrible about the whole thing, Trenton doesn't seem to remember it at all. He doesn't pick at the band-aid, even when he can see it in the mirror. He seems fine, otherwise. I really hope that the scar will fade over time. :(

I am really sorry this happened, you were probably scared... But the little one does seem to have forgotten about the whole thing. Hope the stiches will come out easily.

Poor Trenton! I bet you were freaked out! Glad to hear he's handling it well.

I'm glad everything is okay Sheryl! I can't even imagine. However, everything is okay ... and boys will be boys.
