Miley and the Trip to Emergency Room




She doesn't look very happy.

As most of you know Kyle is out of town this week. So on Monday the girls were suppose to be getting ready to load firewood onto the porch. When they were playing with sticks. Trying to break the ice. When the stick slipped out of Miley's hand and jabbed her in the eye. I was just about to walk out the door when I heard screaming. Miley is screaming I jabbed a stick in my eye. Well I looked at it and there was a blood blister like mark in her eye. It wasn't bleeding outside the eye. I gave her a cold wash cloth and had her lay down. While I called my Mom. She called my Dad and my Brother and they came and gave her a blessing. The blessing made the pain stop.I called the consulting nurse. They said to bring her in. Miley asked that my Mom come with us to the Emergency Room. I decided to take her to Marybridge childrens Hospital. The wait was forever and there was a ton of very sick people there. We were finally seen by the doctor. He said that is was bruised and gave her an antibiotic ointment for her eye. She is to put warm wash cloth on her eye 4 times a day to promote tears. Which will promote faster healing. So she is doing well. She doesn't really like the eye ointment. She can see fine and all is well. Her biggest complaint was when she went to school everyone kept telling her "Did you know your eye is bleeding?".Then she has to explain what happened.

Oh my goodness!!! She is so lucky and isn't it our luck that when the hubby is away, all chaos breaks loose! I guess it's that way, cause Heavenly Father knows we can handle it. Way to use the Priesthood!!!
