Yeowch, Dylan! How many stitches/what was the injury?

He's so cute, Jessica! But, awwww, on the thumb. I hope he feels okay tomorrow.
I was four when I went to the ER for the first time. I fell onto the corner of a toybox when I tripped while jumping rope in our basement. This was 1970, when toyboxes were made out of wood and had sharp corners, which when they connected with your forehead, produced really bad cuts requiring eight stitches. I still remember lying on the bed when the doctor was stitching me up, and seeing the thread reaching up to his hand. That's my only memory of the ER.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
they can stop sending me their "holiday" deal emails any day now!
I think they will still give you a discount even if you're Jewish. It's probably the law.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
He smashed his thumb in the hinge of the bathroom door at preschool and cracked the nailbed. Lots of blood, but we got really lucky - no stitches and no broken bones. He did really enjoy getting his thumb x-rayed ("that big camera that took a picture of my BONES!"), and I was grateful to the ER doc for making the call that 1 stitch would have been more trouble than it was worth.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Poor Dylan!

I think the Squishable Snail is pretty adorable. And so is the Otter. I'd get T-Rex for myself.

Nice dr.
First time I visited the ER, I was..uh 16 or 17. Car accident as a passenger.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
I want to get a couple of Squishables sometime (though I suspect the shipping costs would be an issue). Probably penguin, panda and maybe frog - one for each of us.

My first trip to the ER was pretty young, and was either a kidney thing or an asthma attack. All things considered, I'll take a smushed thumb.
