Brooklyn loves hats!
Brandon took his scouts caving the past two weeks! The first set of caves he went to are very dangerous and so all boys and leaders have to wear helmets and head lamps for safety. The other (coral canyon) is quite safe requiring no helmets! Well on the Second caving adventure they were heading back out and there was a small area that you had to climb up to get out so when Brandon got to that point he squatted down and helped lift boys up! Well once he had helped everyone up he decided to jump up and climb on his own but did not realize that there was a large rock pointing out and he rammed his head right into it!! He had the boys look at it and they said he would be fine, he wasn't bleeding much but he took off his shirt and put pressure on his head while he drove home!!!! When he got home and i looked at it, it looked pretty gross!
He said he was fine and got in the shower to wash off the blood this is what it looked like when he got out of the shower!
I demanded that he get a second opinion since i thought we needed to go to instacare so we headed to two of our neighbors to hear what they thought both thought that we definitely needed to go in! One of the women helped get the swelling to go down since it continued to get worse! It went all the way down to his scull and when she tried to "mush" it together there was a section of his scalp missing! Gross! She said that they rock must have kept a piece! We headed to the instaCare and had four stitches put in (would have been more if they had that missing chunk!) he was bothered that he had to go in to have it looked at but i wasn't willing to risk and infection so close to his brain!! Yay for scouting!
