Bathtub faucet won. I took these pictures the morning after. My poor little guy. Friday nightaround 7:30, after the bath with no water left in the tub, my little guy jumped right into that faucet. It bled a lot and he was just terrified. He had blood on his hands and he would look at it and wail. Right away we realized that it was bad enough to get ourselves over to the ER. It was almost an inch long, pretty deep and wide open. We tried urgent care but they gave us a 2 a.m. appointment 25 minutes from home. Tony took him to the close by ER instead where he was treated promptly at 1:40 a.m.
He ended up with skin glue and only because he was squirming so much he also got taped up. Thank God for that skin glue. What an innovation, I was worried about stitches and scarring on his face, just the thought him getting stitches in the middle of the night...ouch. No idea know what lasting effect he will have as far as a scar goes but I guess we'll see.
Tony said Wyatt fell asleep around 10:30 while they were waiting to be seen. I waited up 'til midnight, then got up to see when they got home at 2. Wyatt had already forgotten about the whole thing by that time and has barely mentioned it since. That's my boy.
