A Ripstick & a Concussion

Today is another combined post.
For more participants visit Thankful Thursday or Thursday Thirteen.
  1. Earlier this week when hubby and I were out and our older girls were babysitting our ten year old feel off of a ripstick.
  2. She was not wearing a helmet.
  3. She hit her head hard enough that she was unconscious.
  4. She lost her sight.
  5. She was answering questions posed to her but not remembering 2 minutes later that we asked her anything.
  6. She was also nauseous.
  7. We headed to the ER.
  8. She vomited a few times and then her sight returned.
  9. Two cat scans, an x-ray, and a lot of waiting time later we returned home.
  10. She has a severe concussion.
  11. She still has symptoms and can continue to for up to a month.
  12. She now knows she must always wear a helmet!
  13. I am so thankful for God’s protecting hand over my children.
