Out of the frying pan, into the fire…

Jeremy got his cast off on Monday! I was very happy as I thought the boy had been spending too much time inside the house (just for having a cast on his arm) and soccer is getting ready to start at the High School. Friday was the Arlington Diocese Day at King’s Dominion and the kids were having a blast. I was getting phone calls and text messages letting me know how things were going all day, until…Jeremy calls about 4 PM to let me know he’d sliced a toe at the wave pool and they were taking him to the medical station to evaluate it. After much trepidation, it transpired that he needed stitches and they don’t do that at King’s Dominion. So, off to the emergency room we go. He left King’s Dominion with a couple of chaperone’s and arrived about 25 minutes later. I left Woodbridge (on a Friday afternoon, heading south, on I-95) and arrived 95 minutes later (it was about 28 miles). When I got there, they had just taken him back so I was able to be there for all of the treatment phase. But this means at least 10 more days inside and the stitches should come out the day that soccer practice starts. Oh my, why him. Here’s a picture of him being wheeled around King’s Dominion.

Incidentally, the nurse from King’s Dominion called the next day to check on him and when I asked about the spot where he cut his foot, she told me she had taken pictures of the spot and would be reporting it to the maintenance folks for evaluation.
