Inside of a foot

[korgul]

What a sight. One I hope to never see again.
My 3 year old put his foot through a window last night. I had just gotten back from out of town, got comfortable and was gettin ready to eat, when CRASH, SMASH, WHHHHAAAAAAAA. My 7 year old comes running down stairs as I heard glass break out side. I take off running upstairs to see the 3yr old screaming and holding his foot with blood pouring out. I turned and yelled move to my wife and other two kids, I raced into the bathroom and grabbed a towel to put on it.

My wife started to freak out and yelled to call an ambulance because it cut an artery. Well they finally arrived and took him to the hospital to stitch him up.

The cut was 2 1/2" long 1/2" wide and about 3/4" deep. With a total of 8 stitches to close.

The funny thing is he started to scream when getting the stuff to numb it. Then while getting the stitches he had his orms crossed behind his head and fell asleep.

What a circus to come home to. I finally ate supper at 11:00 p.m.

Oh well I guess he takes after his dad.

Just had to share the story with the family.

Wives always freak out about that kind of stuff. Well at least mine does. It is quicker to take them to the hospital yourself than wait for the ambulance.

Hope he’s ok.

Glad everything is fine

Typical childhood injury. When he is older direct him to the thread called "Your wierdest childhood injuries..."
