First Injury in England (WARNING not for the sqemish)

Before

after

Back at the house


Well, it finally happened, our first visit to the A&E (Ambulance and Emergency). Micah had his hand smashed in a door by Silas. He handled the whole thing really well, he has a small fracture at the tip of his finger and big laceration on side that is facing down. They weren't able to suture it because it was a crush injury. He has been doing really well with the whole thing since it happened.

Our experience at the hospital was really good, we were in the A&E and out in less than 3 hours, including having an X-ray. I was quite impressed considering I have spent that long total in an American ER just waiting to have an X-ray. The system was very efficient and friendly.
