JJ gave us quite a scare!

On Sept. 27th, JJ was outside going off of his homemade jumps off of his bike. Well, he landed wrong, flipped over the handle bars and went face first into the ground! Hi split his face open between his nose and his top lip, but he also got his bell wrung pretty good. He was clearly not himself at all. Again we rushed off to urgent care and they promptly told me he needed to be transported by ambulance to a hospital. His blood pressure was pretty low, he clearly had a concussion and they were afraid that his nose and/or cheek bone might be broken. The Dr there contacted MaryBridge in Tacoma but they didn't have an ENT specialist on call right then so they started talking about airlifting him to Harborview! My heart was in my throat. To my relief they were able to get a hold of and ENT at Harrison Hospital so I followed the abmulance and did lots of praying in the car. Long story short, no broken bones. Only a concussion and a nasty laceration on his face that needed stitches. He was actually bummed because his nose wasn't broken! This child is crazy! I'm hoping and praying that this little accident will instill even an ounce of fear into him, but I'm pretty sure it will take a much bigger boo-boo to accomplish that. He wants to be a stuntman after all!
