We made our first trip to the ER on Friday morning. I have to admit, I thought we would have made it to this fabulous institution by now. I have two boys and it is just inevitable. So here's the story, we were leaving boot camp and the boys were racing to the car. Ty won! Troy was not so lucky b/c his brother pushed him into the rim of the wheel on the car. The angle and speed at which he hit was just right or wrong in how you look at it. I saw all of this in slow motion. The gash in his head was deep enough that I saw enough flesh to be concerned (panicked really). I work out with some great ladies that came to my aid with gauze, tape and moral support. Susan (my Awesome friend) rode with us to the ER and spent the day in my car and taking care of Ty and her daughter. Thanks again Susan and Greg for being there! We spent 4hrs in the ER and came out with 5 stitches. I was amazed at how calm my child was throughout this experience. Only cried at the initial injury. He held his own bandage on the way to the ER, sat quietly in the waiting room, didn't move an inch when the doctors were sewing him up.....I am so proud of our little guy. Ty later apologized to his brother and gave him a big hug. This occurred the day after Henry left on a TDY. Funny how that happens!
