Our first Legit Head Injury.











Lunch at McDonalds with friends = exciting
Fall off the chair to the ground on her head = unpleasant
Blood soaked curls due to head lac = surprising
Afternoon spent at Instacare = costly
Wound closure via 4 staples = necessary
Hearing Maci say "Mommy can you read me a story" bravely through tears as they cleaned, injected and stapled her head=Priceless.
I sure love this little angel. She was such a trooper! After the initial bleeding stopped she wanted to stay and finish her chicken nuggets and play with her friends. So we did. On our way to Instacare she asked if we could go to gramma's instead. She was so brave....I could hardly believe it. she laid on her tummy for over 45 minutes while they numbed, cleaned, poked at and put staples into her head. She cried a little but didn't move. As soon as we walked out it was "all better" and she focused only on her promised Ice cream cone :)
