A trip to the ER, and some glue.


It turns out, scouting is more dangerous than tackle football. Dallon was playing wall ball at scouts, went after a ball and ran into face first into the wall. His scout leader is a doctor, and he told me that Dallon needed stitches and to take him to the ER. At the hospital they ended up gluing it, instead of stitching it. They said it was the perfect cut for glue and that they thought it would scar less with glue too. The next morning I took this picture. It's been almost 2 weeks since. The glue held up well. The cut is healing.

Ouch! That looks so painful. I didn't know that they had medical glue. Glad it's healing!

So sorry he got hurt. But just tell him, SCARS ROCK so he should be super proud of it. My boys' Aunt Missy said something like this to Skyler when he got hurt. He was okay with it in about 17 seconds after that.

I'm glad it all turned out OK. He looks so grownup in the picture.
