That’s probably the most exciting thing to happen in St Albans since Princess Diana visited in 1990 :p Hope Tadpole is better now and holds no grudges against bonny Hertfordshire…

Eww blood and gore – have to say I’m a complete wuss at stuff like this and passed out once when visiting someone in hospital much to their annoyance as I got more doctors and better care than they had. The nurse was upset though as she hoped I was a cardiac case – she’d just done the training and wanted to practice …

It really gives you a shock when something like this happens. I remember when my youngest son was a baby. He sudenly jerked back while I was holding him and threw himself out of my arms onto the edge of a coffee table, splitting his head open, requiring a few stitches.
I can empathise with the shock you were feeling with poor Tadpole’s injury.

I agree tha Tadpole sounds like a real trooper, and you, Petite, seem to have nerves of steel! You are definitely very strong and handle these kinds of situations so well. I know that as a mom you are required to do lots of things, but you just seem to respond to situations like this with such grace. And then you have such a great way of recounting it all back to us here, sharing the details of the moment and your own emotions.

I hope Tadpole is feeling much better and that all is healing well!

I once saw a little girl whose both legs have almost been cut off in an accident – she was the only one not to cry because she did not feel any pain (schock, isn’t it)…

I hurt myself quite a lot as a child, in the wild 70ies, when children were generally left to roam the places :-) But one does forget and forgive…

Oh no Tadpole,

I had, a similar experience with my 4 year old. Running away gleefully after feeding the ducks on a Sunday morning, she tripped on a raised flagstone. The scream and sob where unusually loud, indicating something more that a scrape. I ran to her, only seeing the pool of blood when I arrived. I carried her to the car and washed her mouth and finding a chipped tooth. I was still crying when I handed her back to her mother about 40 minutes later. She’s 5 next month, the chip is still there, and my heart sinks every time I see it. Although, at the time, my daughter was more interested in the possible arrival of the tooth fairy.

Well done to your brave little one, hope shes on the mend soon. And well done for keeping it together for so long during the event.

Jolly good. Not enough comments though.
