WARNING!!!! Graphic pics of GG's boo boo!!!

[Ilovebigcats]

I have an actual video of her getting hit. Not the actual hit but the event is heard. The kids screamed and I came running out. We are still unsure as to what happened but Caetie did leave the key in the golf cart and Ben hopped on and gunned it. Caetie jumped back on it to stop him and GG ended up getting hit. We don't know if she was completely ran over or clipped or pinned... I will upload the video later. The screams are scary. All the kids freaked out. Toby cried the whole way to the hospital. Caetie was being careless but it was an accident. The rules are changing with regards to the golf cart IF it stays! LOL! We might be selling that sucker. Anywho...

Allie came up to the door screaming that Caetie ran over GG with the golf cart. I heard them all screaming so I ran out back and screamed for Danny and started praying. LOL! GG was walking up the back yard holding her head. She looked fine but I didn't know if she had anything internal going on cause I wasn't sure if she was completely ran over. I picked her up and set her on the trampoline. I asked her what hurt. She said her ear and was holding the right one. I looked at her right ear and it was fine. She had stopped crying and was kind of whining. I said, ohhhhhhh your okay. I carried her inside to check her over just in case.

She looked like this sitting in triage but you can't tell by looking at her that anything is wrong.



Danny stayed outside and made Caetie put the golf cart up and issued to warnings about it. She was driving right up on Ben and got a good talking to over that one. I was right inside the door checking GG. I asked her what was hurting and she said her head. She looked fine... just muddy and dirty like she was drug. So I flipped her hair back and checked the other side of her head... that's when I saw....





I yelled OH MY GOD DANNY! I'M GONNA PASS OUT!!! He came running around the corner and looked and said Oh God and grabbed the phone and hit 911. I gathered myself enough to say NO! We can drive her. We don't need an ambulance. We were kinda panicky. GG was just looking at us. LOL!! She never really cried or bled. It was leaky.

We told all the kids to get shoes on and get in the van. Toby started crying then. Caetie was tore up. The kids were praying and saying my sister, my sister. LOL! I threw some clothes on. We made the phone calls and headed out.

They scanned her head. X rayed her foot... she had skid marks on her foot and a little sore. We still aren't sure what all got run over or hit. After giving her a bath tonight... she has a huge cut on her butt and a nice big scrape on her side. Poor child. Here are a few more pics. She did SOOOO good. Everyone was shocked that she didn't cry or anything. It barely even oozed. Come to find out, she severed all the sensory nerves in her ear. She wasn't feeling anything. The Dr said some of it would come back but it would always feel weird to her. I am glad she didn't feel anything.

The worry now is keeping infection out. She is on antibiotics and a topical cream. Keep praying that it heals up quickly with no problems. She gets checked next wednesday to make sure it is healing up good. Her ear is a sticking out a little weird and kinda crooked but at least it is attached!!

More pics...

When they put in her IV line... she sang them her ABC's to distract herself. She got done and then started singing Awesome God. She sang... Our God is an awesome God he reigns OWWWWWWWWWW. LOL! She said she didn't want to see her blood anymore.

In the CT I told her they are taking a big picture of her brain. She said she don't like brains. So, she learned that she doesn't want to see her blood and she doesn't like brains. LOL!!

She was cracking us up. She said Caetie needs a spanking and we need to cut her ear off.

I'm so glad she's going to be ok. Will be praying that there's no infection and healing comes quickly. She will probably be really sore all over tomorrow. She's really a brave little girl. Our prayers are with her and your family.

[Shellie]

I laughed out loud at her proclamation that Caetie needed a spanking! Glad to hear she is okay.

[jessicacook]

I thought Caetie needing a spanking was funny too!

Poor baby! How did she handle the night?

[Ilovebigcats]

She is upstairs playing. She said it doesn't hurt. It looks like it didn't even drain last night so we will be able to take the bandage off.

However.... this day isn't looking good so far. I had to pull a tick off Caetie, Silas swallowed his front loose tooth in his sleep, and Ben woke up gasping for air and had to sit in the bathroom with steam for the croupy cough. I am sorta dreading for Toby to get up.

GG still hasn't had anything for pain. I have told her several times to stop jumping around before she falls on her head.

Allie told me that GG was trying to get on the golf cart and Ben went so fast that he flipped GG off the golf cart and her arm, foot, and ear got ran over. Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice. That thing is getting cleaned up and sold!

Ron you still want it to do laps around the church with Howie while he exercises?

Bless your hearts! Y'all have been through so much lately. We're still praying for you.

Hey Wen, I showed Kailee the pictures and she said 'She broke it.' and then turned around and started watching Caillou again. Ha.

[Ilovebigcats]

Tell her thanks for the concern.

GG was trying to see what all she could get from this. A trip to see Kailee was in the scheme. She said she better not bite me.

[JanB]

I can just imagine little GG with her boo boo. Children are so precious.

[Sherry]

Poor kid!! I laughed with the spanking comment, sounds like a sister!

Have you thought about installing a rubber room?

[oletimer]

How is GG doing?

[Ilovebigcats]

She is doing great! She still hasn't complained about pain. We get to stop the cream tomorrow and the antibiotic the next day. I can wash it tomorrow too! She is a trooper! It is healing up nicely. No redness. No bruising. She's good. It is still swollen and sticking out. We have to keep her from bouncing around too much. She is ready to run free. LOL!

She went to the dentist today and has no cavities! She got a hug from the hygenist. She squeezed her and GG said OW. She said did I hug you too hard. GG said you mooshed my ear. The lady freaked out but GG acted like nothing. LOL! It was funny.
