And again...

Went to the ER today for the second time since we arrived in the UK (we haven't even been here 3 months yet!)... I'm pretty sure I'm all done with that place. This time it was with Nathanael. He had his thumb in the wrong place at the wrong time and got it slammed in a door. The whole nail bed came out and the x-ray said the tip of his thumb is broken. You can't tell from the angle of the photos, but from the side, the tip of his thumb is an "S". We're going to have to take him in to a different hospital to a plastic surgeon tomorrow for them to remove the complete nail, clean it up, put it back in and sew his finger up. If you're squeamish, scroll no further!

Oh my!!!! Poor guy. I'm pretty sure you've had more medial emergencies out of the US than when you were here! So glad everything looks ok and hopefully no permanent damage. Good thing they are boys and scars are cool. ;o)
Love you and praying for good rest tonight!
