Emergency room visit

April 28th, 2008 by coral | Posted in What's going on |

Thursday night Ashley came out of her room hysterical because her earing back was missing! It was inside her piercing hole! The earing back had over time worked its way into her ear lobe.dcam0041.JPGWhich was a very unique situation I had never encountered before, even with all of my piercings. So I called the nurse line and was told head straight to the emergency room to have it removed.dcam0046.JPG

The ER doctor was great, he numbed the ear lobe, then worked the back out of the hole. She was such a brave trooper, she cried only slightly when they injected the Novocaine and laid perfectly still through the whole event. Now we just have to wait for things to heal a bit before we put earing with backs on again. I think we will use safty backs for a few years til she is older.
