Karley in the ER

I know this is a little after the fact but I am trying to up date this blog so that I can look back on all the events and I can't leave Karley's first ER trip out. A few weeks ago I was over at the boys school helping out. When I got home Colby was still at the church playing basketball, or so I thought. During Colby's game he had left her to play on the stage. He also had left his keys on the stage so being the girl that she is she picked up the keys and started to play with them. She found an outlet on the stage and put the keys into the whole. Colby thought someone had taken a picture because there was a flash of light but them Karley strated to cry. He ran over to her to find her on the floor and the keys still in the outlet. She had a burn mark on her hand. Colby called the ask a nurse hotline and was told that becasue there were visable burn marks and becasue the shock had casued her to wet herself she needed to be checked out. To make a long story short she was fine but it took 6 hours in the ER to decide that. Kalrey and Colby waiting in the ER Room

A children's social worker came to see what see could do. She brought Karley a Mickey Mouse and some stickers. We spent a lot of time putting round stcikers on Mickey Mouses tummy. Then when it was time for her to get stickers put on her tummy and have her heart monitored Karley sat still and did great.

More stickers on Mickey Mouse. It was a good practice for us to see how Karley does hospitals. Karley has had an umbilical hernia since birth. If it has not healed by two and a half (September) then she will be scheduled for a sergical repair.
