First Paige hit her face, you probably already saw the pics. Second, she had the anti-freeze incident, which I was not going to blog about. I didn't want to make a bigger deal than it already was and move on. Plus, I believe everyone has already probably heard about it. My whole neighborhood knew when all the firetrucks and ambulances showed up! If I wasn't so scared for Paige I would have crawled in a whole!! Third......We were in the ER last night with her, again....
Everyone was outside playing while we helped Jake and his friend with their science project. Paige had been playing on the little slide that we have. Well, it was partially on the sidewalk because the day before we had friends over and we were utilizing the grass area. I didn't like the slide being where it was because it felt unsafe. But it was either that or have her get pummelled with a soccer ball while going down the slide. When we went out I thought that I should move it completely on the grass but then I got distracted. I hate it when you don't listen to that little voice.
Next thing I know, Brysen is yelling at me that Paige was hurt. She fell straight back from the top of the slide. I looked over and she was flat on her back not making a peep. I picked her up and she started to cry and then she started acting funny and she had a mini seizure and went unconscious(makes me cry writing about it!). She was out for about 20 seconds.
Adam saw what happened too and we both started crying and panicked! We threw our kids at our neighbors plus the friend visiting and headed to the hospital. She slept the whole way. The Dr. wanted to do a CT scan,because of the seizure, but we had to wait forever. Finally he came back and apologized for the wait, they had a lot of traumas come in. He advised us that since she was doing so well that we should take her home and watch her and not expose her to radiation this young if it can be avoided. So we did. I checked on her a few times when she was sleeping and had her sleep next to me for a bit. So far she's doing great! I told Adam if this is an indicator of what the rest of her life is going to be like then I am going to go grey very soon!
I don't think our hearts can take another thing! I was thinking today that usually when a lot of bad things happen I tend to think and feel that we are "getting hit, and could things get any worse?". But honestly I couldn't feel more grateful! Even though all of these scary things have been happening our sweet girl has come through it with flying colors! What a blessing, things could have been so much worse!
