Did you know that head wounds bleed a LOT? As our doctor put it, when two hard things are forced together, anything soft in the middle splits. And split it did. (Skip ahead if you would rather skip some gory details.)
Once her wound was cleaned out I could actually see her skull. Yeah, gross. It still turns my stomach just to think about it, but I survived. I am sure glad the Lord gives us the ability to handle things that under ordinary circumstances would send us over the edge.
I am so thankful that Jacob was able to be such a help. I sent him on four different errands and he was eager and cheerful to be of service. Another blessing is that we were able to be seen at our regular clinic by our own pediatrician. Our neighbor Tiffany and her mother- in-law blessed us by watching the boys so that I could just focus on Kaylee. (Thank you so much Tiffany and Arlene!!!)
Kaylee was amazing today. She handled herself so well and suffered through some breakthrough pain during the stitching process with grace. I was so proud of her. I will upload and post some pictures as soon as I find my cable.
