A Day in my Drama/Life ;)

Took the kids to the dentist well it took us about a month to get all of us in cause they would only do 2 of the same family in one day....not sure why or where they think that makes sense but....I will be nice today ;)

Long story short Ethan has 4 cavities I didn't know about, and 1 that had to come out.
So Wed.May 2nd. we went for the extraction, he was scared, and it didn't help matters to be told by his big brother  "They give you a shot inside your mouth with HUGE needles! It hurts so bad!" and yada yada.... (I guess Cayden was trying the prevention method to get Ethan to brush his teeth)
So after it was all finished I asked Ethan how big was the needle and this was his reply.....
The Needle was THISSSSS big!!!
On Friday May 4th, Ethan stepped on a needle, and immediately started stomping around screaming, to make an very long story short.....it broke off in his foot. We didn't know until Sunday when we had X-rays at the ER.
Went back to the Urgent Care where the PA decided to make an incision to see if he could dig it out. He couldn't and here is the why.We had X-rays at Reid Hospital ER to see WHERE it was, as the previous X-Rays didn't show. Come to find out the needle was at an angle and laying next to his bone. So he sat up an apt for Ethan to see the Orthopedics on Monday. Monday they set up surgery for Tues.
Ready for Surgery, before being drugged

 Tues he had Fluoroscopic surgery, and has had a huge bandage on his foot since, we are to get it off today.

The Needle that was stuck in his foot, next to a quarter!


It has been quite a drama the last 4 weeks or so around here.I have been kicked, hit, punched, chocked with intent to do bodily harm, and bit in a sensitive area......I am just thankful it was little Ethan and not Cayden.!
 On top of life I was preparing for my parents benefit and trying to help out those in charge as much as I could which is why the needle was in the floor.....well it was actually in a spool of thread against the wall next to where I was sitting, Ethan had to squeeze between me and the wall to get it in his foot....*sigh*

I will blog later about the benefit, but I have got to get off here for now! Thank to everybody who prayed for us this week......as you can tell we needed it! :)
Love!
