So, yet again, we have another episode of stitches. I almost forgot to blog about it... they have become so common place in our house that I think they are no biggie anymore. About a month ago (6/3/12), we were at a friend's house and Greyson was running and fell... while trying to get his pants down to urinate.... not a good mix of things to have happen at the same time. He and everything else near him ended up sprayed down and he was hurt - physically and emotionally - by the whole ordeal. I think it is going to provide for great comic relief later on down the road though. I'm thinking about the times we want to humble and mortify him.... girlfriends, graduation, wedding. I can hear Ben now... "be nice, Melissa"
Greyson is also comfortable with the whole stitches idea.... I guess when you've been here two other times for the same EXACT thing (3rd set in his chin), you start to know what to expect.
And Thor had his back anyway.
BEFORE:
We have a medical friend that when told about our stitches count mentioned her remedy for large cuts - medical adhesive. I quickly told her that the "cuts" we have aren't cuts, they are gaping holes.
AFTER STITCHES:
All stitched up. Two days later, the one on the far right fell out and we put a steri-strip on it.
THIS MORNING (7/12/12): See the three different scars? I'm just glad that they are under his chin!
