No your eyes are not
deceiving you, that's Cody in a wheelchair. We had our trauma for the week last night. Cody got out of the shower and stepped on a pencil that Jordan had left on the floor. Of course the point of the pencil broke off in Cody's foot! I tried getting it out but it was in there good. So off we go to the ER at 9:45 at night.
We finally got paperwork started after being there for almost an hour. They gave him a wheel chair so that he could stay off it.
We finally made it back to x-ray and a holding room at 1 am (yes that is in the morning) That black mark on his foot is the pencil point,
As you can see from the nasty scab ("
ICK") on his other leg we already had some trauma this week. Let's just say it involved a bicycle chain and his leg!
SO finally around 2:15 am he was numb and the doctor "dug" out the pencil. He says he'll be fine. He gave us some antibiotics and we have to follow up with our
pediatrician. What a night. We finally got back home around 3am. All those with boys will get a kick out of this story! Others may just think "poor boy"!

Ouch! Definitely not a fun all nighter. Did he at least get a Doctor's excuse to get out of school the next day (for the teacher and the student)? Hope it healed quick with no infection.
