As I mentioned before, Elizabeth is back at school in her new wheelchair. Only her second day and she is outside at recess. She decides to drive by a group of kids playing tether ball when the rope snaps the hook goes flying and hits her in the head.
The odd of this have to be astronomical as this smooth hook with no sharp edges hits her hard enough to leave her with a significant gash in her forehead.
In disbelief, the nurse calls and said that Elizabeth was hurt, but it was not due to her EDS. Remember, she was taken home from school just last week because she sprained her foot in her chair, now she has a gash in her head that requires stitches!
Chuck could not believe it. "Next they are going to call and say that a rabid squirrel got loose in the school and only attacked one kid, yours."
She told us that a friend of hers said that all of the tether balls were off limits because of the incident. If the school is going to base what is safe and not safe upon our kids, everyone will be wrapped in bubble wrap and placed in padded rooms.
All I know is that the name of this blog might be a self-fulfilling prophesy; both good and bad.
