Not Again...

Russell gave us another scare on Saturday. He was playing at his friends house and decided to climb the orange tree in their backyard (and like I said in my last post, he loved to climb). They were picking oranges to make juice. Well when he reached for what he thought was "a good one" the branch he was holding on to broke...and down he went...right on his head. He fell a good 12-15 feet. When I went to go pick him up I could definitely tell things weren't right. So, I took him into the urgent care. From there they transported us to Maricopa Medical Center via ambulance. They took him there because they have a trauma unit and when a child falls from over twice their height, it's considered a trauma 1. Anyways, so after they cut his clothes off, took chest x-rays, CT scans...we find that he has a concussion and some pretty nice scrapes and bruises. I'm so grateful that's all it was. And Russell has promised to keep his feet on the ground for the next few days at least.
