Cuts, Grazes, Bruises


Letitia had a bad fall yesterday! She tripped and cut both knees on raw unfinished concrete! There was blood,lots of it by my standard. She cried and screamed till she turned purple. She created such a commotion everyone around us knew she fell.


When we got home we ran her under warm water and slapped on the antispectic cream. She screamed again, till she turned purple. Well, everything was much better today. The wound dried out really well. BUT she had to fall again on the same spot!!! This cause the wound to split open exposing the raw FLESH on her knees.......OHHHHHHH!!!!! EWWWWW!!!!!!


This is too much for me to take. I ran off to the pharmacy and bought dressing for her wound. But she didn't like the idea of something foreign pasted to her knees. She protested and tried to peel the damn thing off. Anyway, she forgot about it until bath time......ewwww....... she squealed and she yelled while we were trying to medicate the wound.


The horrible things you have to deal with when you are a parent is just heart wrenching at times.
