"We May Not Have It All Together But Together We Have It All"

On Feb 9th I took Evan to the doc due to a nasty bump on his head. He and Miles were playing around the night before and Evan hit his head on the wall. That night Ryan had put the boys to bed (I went to a meeting) and he said Evan was acting normal so I didn't worry about the bump until the next day. He came home from school a little out of it, pale and feverish. We went straight to the doctor. Once we got there I was signing in Evan looked up at me said "mom" in just that way that I knew I needed to act fast. I turned around and grabbed the closest garbage can and yes right there in the lobby he threw up. I felt so bad for him. The doc checked him out and didn't like how he was responding, he couldn't follow his finger or the light, he was slow in answering the doc's questions and throwing up so he ordered a CT scan. Now I was nervous. He also had a ear infection which was causing the fever. Pour little man was miserable. Luckily the CT scan did not show any fluid of any sort in his brain, he just had a slight concussion. I have a feeling with three active boys I will be well known at the doc and the radiologist's offices.

Here's Evan's bump a month later, I forgot to get a picture of it when it was really nasty looking.
