21 July 2005 - First ER Visit
Well, we got to try out the Cy-Fair Medical Center's ER this afternoon. DD was playing chase with our mini dachshund and the dog's tooth made a 4" laceration across the top of her foot where the foot bends with the ankle (like ankle to ankle over the top). I wiped it and the edges were apart and all I could see was white down below : / So we loaded up in the truck.
They didn't stitch it because it was a dog tooth that did it, for fear of trapping any infection inside her foot. So they glued her cut together and put steri-strips all over it. I have to change the dressings twice a day and she has to take Augmentin for 10 days.
Never a dull moment!

that must have 'smarted'! Praise God it was nothing more serious!
We've had our share of ER visits too, all three of my girls have broken their arm...let's just say we know them at the ER well :o)
