Gretchen's Issues

Gretchen has had a bIt of a hard time lately in physical department. Saturday morning she sliced her hand on a candle holder. Of course it didn't help that she was jumping off of the bathroom sink. Hmmm? The first thing she said, well more liked screamed, after she did it was "Am I gonna need stitches?" "Yes." Gretchen, "Ohhhh! WhoAaaaaa. Yeeeowwww!" She is our most dramatic out of the bunch.

Thankfully, Mat has enough training that we can bypass the ER and go straight to his minor room at work. And, thankfully, the surgery chair contorts to so many positions with a foot pedal that Gretchen forgot all about the pain of the stitches.



A worried sister looks on with concern and fear. She likes to watch and learn.




Gretchen is also allergic to something in bloom. Her eyes were rubbed raw by Monday. I did the only soothing thing I could think of for eyes, cucumbers. Her sister once again watches and learns.
