This not for critique, just a follow up on "Bad Injury" posted a week or so ago. A few of you asked to see the culprit so here it is (+ a couple more of said injury):

:shock: :shock: :shock:

The scar actually looks a lot longer in these pics than the original one you posted (from what I can remember....) eeeewww, the poor little fella, he must have been so brave. I certainly would have fainted to see that, pouring out blood on one of my kids head. :shock: I feel faint just looking at the stitches...better go and lie down I think!!!

So, what sort of toilet roll holder do you have now?

HI

You can only hope the hair alone the scar grows back white - adds character.

Looks like a bad knock.

Hi Marcus,

how did your son connect with that thing ? :shock:
I believe I haven't heared the story. :?:
Did he slip and crash into it ? :(
I hope he's not drinking :shock:
And I surely hope that he is well.


Cheers

Thanks marcus,

I'm happy you don't have killer toilet roll holders.
So, how is the head injury looking today ?
All healed, no scar, hair growing ok ?

Cheers

Christiand,
He has a small scar (say 1.5cm) on his forehead but it is fading well. This was the impact point. You can't see anything in his hairline and scalp as it was a really clean cut. As mentioned B4 he was'nt even Xray'ed as his skull was totally exposed and a visual check confirmed no fractures. I know that sounds ugly (as it was) but the Doctors all agreed there was no need as they had a good look at his skull through the wound.
I'm glad I'm not a Doctor it's hard enough being a parent of 2 boys. My eldest son got hit by a car on his bike 4 months ago......he too is very lucky. My boys keep us busy, we are in hospital with them about 4 times a year.
