An ER Visit and 26 Stitches ....

This is my baby... He was smiling even though he was hurt really bad...He had a numbing agent on his head...

ewww... Looks painful....
This was after he received his stitches... He was sedated... He was so funny...
Jackson was jumping in his bed and he jumped off of a rail into his bed and hit another rail and split his head just above his eye open.... We rushed him to Vanderbilt and he received 26 stitches inside and out... He cut through 2 layers of skin and they were afraid he had cut down to the muscle... Bless his heart.. He was such a brave little boy and so funny too... Even though he was hurt, he had the doctor's and nurses laughing... This lady from Child life came in and talked to Jackson and she actually stayed while Jackson was getting his stitches and she was just awesome! We arrived at Vanderbilt around 8:00 pm and we left around 1:00 am... It took about an hour and a half to sew his head up... A very traumatic experience.... I hope we never, ever have to go back to the Emergency Room again.....
