The day starts off as usual with the exception that Chris is due to be back at work for 4hrs in the morning. We have managed to arrange something with his Mom and my sister and helping with the two kids while I go see Hudson first thing in the morning. Chris drops me off at the hospital at around 9:00ish and he comes back to work at the house.
Well as I sit at Hudson bedside a nurse comes up to me and say’s, your husband Chris is on the phone. This was at around 12:00p.m. I get on the phone and Chris is totally calm, he say’s I need you to come downstairs to the emergency because Hayley is there. I ask what do you mean? Is she ok? he doens’t answer that question, he just said, come down to emergency. So I hang up the phone and leave Hudsons bedside and walk down the stairs to emergency. As soon as I get there, they knew who I was (Hayley’s mom) she was screaming and I could hear her, once I get in the room she is already straped to an IV pole and has no clothes on just wrapped in a white blanket. I quickly go to see her because she wants mommy. I still don’t know what had happened and my sister is crying and finally both her and Chris start telling me that while Age was trying to take Hayley out for a walk, while she was trying to put the stroller together, Hayley somehow put her hands in it and got clamped somehow in it. Age say’s that as soon as she saw her finger she knew she had to rush her to emergency, so luckily Chris was in the room upstairs and Age comes with a screaming Hayley and a frantic Age saying that Hayley needs to be taken to Emergency, so Chris hangs up the phone with work and they rush her to the hospital.
Once I got there, she calmed down and of course having Morphine helped her to become calm and kept telling me she got an ouchy on her finger. Age and Chris didn’t want me to see it because they knew I would be impacted too much by it since apprantly the tip of her middle finger was about 80% off and just hanging there. Chris dosn’t get upset about stuff like that but he said it was pretty disturbing to see, and Age being a nurse was pretty distraught by it, so I knew that it must really be bad.
So finally the Plastic Surgeon comes in to sew her little finger back up and of course they woulnd’t let me be in the room, but I was right outside and she did so good, they only froze her finger to sew it, thankfully she didn’t need sedation. So were in the emergency for about 5hrs. Once everything was done we headed upstairs to see Hudson and were only they for a bit and took Hayley back to house to get some rest.
So to say the least it was quite an eventful day and we survived it, somehow I didn’t have a breakdown and was calm for such a challenging day. The next day Hayley wakes up as normal and starts to show of her wrapped up finger and is playing and running around like nothing has happened. AMAZING!!! she’s a tough little cookie, I am so proud of her. I know God is helping us through all of these amazing tests, we are doing good, all we can do is laugh about it already and know that the kids will have good stories in their history books HE!!
I am thankful she will regain the ability to move her finger and Hudson was having a stable day and Hayden finally is back to normal and no longer having diarrhea and vomiting.
