OO had a bad cut on her chin in the common toilet while climbing the high stool today. The table was wet and her hands slipped. She let out a loud scream and followed by weak whimpering. I think she was speechless from the immense pain that followed the knock on the edge of the countertop. We knew something was wrong and rushed to her. It was a pretty deep gash on the bottom of her chin. We quickly patched her up with plaster.
I didn't think to bring her to the doctors but since we were at Dr Ang with YY for his checkup, Meimei asked Dr a casual question on the cut. Dr Ang immediately threw a series of questions about the cut and asked that we bring her in.
Thank goodness Meimei asked. The cut was very deep and most likely would be infected. So Dr Ang patched OO up with surgical glue to save OO from another round of stitching pain and send us home with antibiotics to keep the infection at bay.
Poor girlgirl ... She's been through so much the last month with the Bali sickness lingering till the past few days. And now this .... haiz. Hopefully she doesn't get another bout of fever or cough or cold. Her little body can only take so much pounding and medication.
