Thursday

Here's a little photo journal of Thomas's stitches adventure on Thursday.  Most of the pictures were taken by Thomas.


This is the stool he fell onto and split his lip while he was supposed to be taking a nap

This is the sticky alligator the nurse gave him at urgent care to make him feel better when she told us we had to go to the ER because they have to put him out to give him stitches on his lip


This is Thomas REALLY bored and hyper (remember, no nap) waiting for the doctor to see him at the ER


This is one of the nurses that Thomas took pictures of after he got bored with coloring and ripping apart his sticky alligator.


This is the doctor that took forever on the phone while Thomas, the "child drugging staff" and I waited not so patiently


This is the nurse that taught Thomas how to turn the camera around and take pictures of himself


This is one of about 30 pictures that Thomas took of himself


This is the doctor who is finally ready and trying to distract Thomas while they give him the nasty shot in his leg to put him to sleep


This was the last picture he took before he went to sleep (well, sort of went to sleep, it was totally creepy because he never closed his eyes, eek)


This is Thomas when he woke up and demanded the camera back.  He was rewarded with a popsicle instead


This is a close up on the nasty thing (his lip, not the popsicle)

And this is the children's Motrin that Thomas took a picture of when he stole the camera back after we got home ... 5 hours after we left for Urgent Care!  

The End

I don't know why I joy in the lives of my siblings but I can't help but smile after reading a story like that. I smile and the words to "your not alone" float through my mind.
