Hey remember how Cammon got stitches in his head? Well... he got the stitches removed and everything was healing nicely. Until today....
Adney and Cammon were playing in a huge-ish bucket that we keep toys in. And it tipped over. And his head hit a metal chair. And it bust it all wide open... and if you know anything about medical stuff... that is called a secondary wound... and thats bad.
Here's a picture from Thursday, healing nicely: (Sorry for the crappy cell phone picture)
And here is a picture today while we were in the car on the way to the hospital:
Poor little guy! Secondary wounds scar... a lot. And they are super prone to infection or being injured again. So he got 7 more stitches today. Which is SO traumatic for a wee little guy who has to be pinned down by his Daddy to get them.
My worst nightmare is that it gets infected... or that he busts it open again in the next few weeks. I am not as worried about the scar... although I am not thrilled about it either.
14 stitches in the last week. Nightmare! OK... that was maybe a little dramatic. Tons of more awful things could happen to my baby... twice. None that I am choosing to think about.
Rough day. Thankfully tomorrow is a new one. And wounds heal.

That's so sad! I hope he feels better! He is still so cute even with stitches.
Oh that is so sad!!! It's too bad that it's going to scar but it could turn into a really cool Harry Potter scar!
