"One little Megan, jumping on the bed. She fell off and bumped her head. Mama called the doctor and the doctor said, 'no mire megans jumping on the bed'". This is our story tonight. Basically, Megan did a live reenactment of this famous song, except she bumped her (split it, actually), and mama took her to the immediate care rather than just call.
It is just the worst feeling when your little ones are hurt and in pain. You just wish you could bear it for them, and take their pain away. I am not a stranger to the ER, but I also don't run there over any little thing, either. No matter how many times I've been through it, each time sucks.
Megan was jumping on her sister's bed, and fell off of it. When she fell, she hit her ear on the bed frame. She came out crying, and when I saw her ear, I though "uh oh. This thing is going to need stitches." The bleeding stopped, but it looked awful, so we took her to the immediate care center.
They were really nice at the center, and her doctor was wonderful. She was so calm and caring for our little Meggie. She was so patient and understanding. Megan did great up until that damn numbing shot. It was awful! My heart broke when I saw her in such pain. It's awful for any parent to go through because you have to hide your emotions so that your child doesn't get even more worried. Unfortunately, the numbing stuff doesn't usually work on me, and it wasn't working too well on her either. Eventually it kicked in enough for the doctor to put in 5 stitches. After she was done, Megan perked up a bit, and was happy to get her ice cream. Here is a picture of the little darling after it was all done. She went through terrible pain, and still gave a small smile for a picture. Needless to say, I can't wait to go to bed and end this day. The doctor recommened I call the plastic surgeon tomorrow to have him check on her ear tomorrow or Thursday. Hopefully everything will all work out. Good night all, and give your little ones an extra hug and kiss tonight.
