Macy's first traumatic injury
At just after midnight, we heard a loud crash and then hysterical wailing. Macy came walking toward our bedroom with a rush of blood on her face. Apparently she had fallen out of her bed and hit her face on the corner of an open dresser drawer. After inspection we decided it was time to take her to the emergency room. The doctors did a great job treating Macy. She was sedated and then they managed to put about 20 stitches in her head. We feel blessed for many reasons. One big one is the placement of the cut. When it heals it will be around her eyebrow, which won't be as noticeable. Also, she was only a couple of centimeters from having that corner hit her in the eye, which could have been real bad. The doctor said that the wound was better than he initially thought and closing it was pretty easy and there should be minimal scarring. Macy was so brave and strong throughout the entire visit and she is back to being the happy, crazy, and curious Macy that we all love.
