Exciting Weekend

It had been a long time since we took a trip to Warner Robins to visit my parents, so we decided to do that this weekend. We got up early Saturday morning and got everything ready to go. The car was loaded and the only thing left to do was get the kids loaded and get Samson. I put Kelsey in the car first. Adam ran upstairs to get Samson and I called Logan to come get in the car. As he and I are walking to his side of the car, he trips over my feet and lands face first on the driveway. I picked him up and he was holding his wrist.The first thought I had was that he had broken his wrist. Then, I saw the blood. I pulled his hand away from his face and as soon as I saw it, I knew he needed stitches in his chin. Logan and I went back in the house to clean up the blood and get a washcloth to keep on his chin and we headed to an urgent care facility. We got there at about 9:45 but they didn't open until 10:00. We decided to just wait there until they opened. To make a long story short, they finally told us at 10:30 they don't usually treat children and sent us to a children's urgent care hospital. Why they couldn't tell us that when they saw us come in the door, I don't know, but anyway, we were on our way to the Children's hospital.

When we got there we had not even finished signing in when a nurse came out to call another family back. She looked at Logan and asked if he had a split chin, then took us right on back. They put this numbing gel on Logan's chin that had to stay on for 30 minutes and sent us back to the waiting room to get registered. Exactly 30 minutes later, they were calling us back to get stitched up. I was quite impressed with the care and attention we received. They were wonderful!

Logan was so tough! Adam and I were very proud of him. He handled everything so great. He told the nurses and the doctor exactly what happened, and didn't even flinch while they worked on him. He really did AWESOME!
