Where everybody knows your name

And they're always glad you came...

Yup, Son #4 and I hit the ER again today. He woke up with the sensation of broken glass in his eye. It was red and teary and painful, and flushing it with saline at home didn't help.

Fortunately, the wait at the ER was so long that before he saw a doctor, it had resolved itself.

On the way out, he noticed the doctor who had sewn his arm up, on Christmas Eve.

"There's Dr. Esterhay! Can I go say hi?"

We are just toooo comfortable at the hospital.

Hey! We went to the ER this weekend too!!!! We didn't run into you there though...

Sue said...

Oh my goodness! Was it pink-eye? Is he okay?

Sue-Well, not pink-eye. He said it felt like he had a piece of glass in there. So, some foreign body. And eventually, it washed itself out. He's fine!

Jill-next time, we should coordinate. I'll bring the chips if you'll bring the dip...

Sing:

Ain't no party like and ER party. Heyyy-Hoo! Heyyy--Hooo!

My New's Years resolution for this year is NO ER visits. I swear I think we've been to every ER in town and no we aren't moving around to keep DSS from tracking up. We just happen to go to the nearest one at the time of
injury/illness.

Who knew the ER would be busy on a Sunday morning. Such a small town I swear people head there for some entertainment!

Glad it worked out!
