I was going through pictures this morning and came across pictures of Meryn in the E.R. right after she fell. I think that I sent some of these pictures, but I don't think I've sent any of how she has been doing lately. I'll recap a little of the events for those who don't know. She was playing on Grandpa and Grandma Neirs bed and fell off onto a radiator heater which split her lip completely and knocked out her tooth. Susan was on her way home from Wichita and on the phone with Grandma when it happened. So Grandma rushed her to the E.R. to get her fixed up. Susan showed up shortly after they arrived. The E.R. doc sewed her up and sent her on her way. We took her to our pediatrician and he was very surprised they hadn't gotten a specialist to sew her up. So he had us see the plastic surgeon who was upset they didn't call him too. After all this, we find out the guy in the E.R. was a P.A., not even a doctor. So that added insult to injury. Anyway, we take her back to the plastic surgeon in June and he's going to see what he can do. We also are going to have her seen for a replacement tooth. She's doing really well with the scar cream we have to use three times daily and tells us that her tooth went "bye bye". So that's where we're at now. I'll try and keep updates when we find out more.
