The other day we had finally finished all the moving and cleaning and handed the keys back - all was done!! So when we got home I was exhausted, and started falling asleep where I sat. I asked Brad to watch Nick so I could go lay down. Shortly later I woke as Nick screamed out in pain and Brad was swearing. My poor little bub had dropped a hand weight on his toe, it was bleeding and starting to swell up really bad, we were sure it must've been broken. We rushed him to the hospital, where they did X-rays and found that it had a little fracture but nothing too serious. Because Nick was still crying in so much pain, the dr drilled a hole through his toe-nail to relieve the pressure. Nicky had to have the laughing gas and he was so precious looking up at me and giggling. He's so brave! Little man wasn't allowed to walk all day yesterday, but he's allowed to today. He's not showing any signs of pain, but it's still bleeding, which I'm a bit worried about. I'll take him to the GP in the next couple of days to see how well it's healing. It still looks pretty bad and has to stay bandaged but we had to change the dressing yesterday because the bandage came undone. OOOh my poor little guy. Wish it was me and not him!!!
Needless to say I'm not taking my eye off him for a second!! |
