Hannah's Head

What loving siblings to wait on her hand and foot!

  Hannah ran into a metal pole hard enough to knock her over.  I didn't see it happen.   She seemed fine, but two days later she has an episode.  She was just standing at the kitchen counter making sandwiches when she started crying hysterically and saying everything was getting smaller and she can't see.  She also was saying her head was hurting so bad it was going to explode.  This scared me to death!  I laid her on the couch and tried to calm her while I made phone calls.  Then we jumped in the car and I took Isaac and Genna to a nearby friend's house on the way to the ER.  She was starting to feel better by the time we were driving and the nausea had passed.  She was shaky and weak still.  They did a neuro exam and decided it was a mild concussion.  She has to be on light duty for a couple of weeks, no running, sports, or rough housing.

When we got home with everyone, Drew was ready for a nap, so Genna and Isaac took care of Hannah and got her lunch.  They were so sweet to their big sis.  After she ate and read a bit, she took a long nap and felt much better.  We are all very thankful she is okay!  Praise God!
