It has been quite a week...
On Thursday my daughter had 2 wisdom teeth out...
the procedure went well...


when we left the office it was pouring down rain...
we had to drive through construction work...
rain pouring...wind blowing...
we finally got out of construction...
the rain stopped...
we stopped to get her prescriptions filled....
she started feeling queasy....
the people at CVS were getting her a bag...
she opened the door to my truck...
as I was about to hand her the bag...
she blacked out...
fell out of the truck...
my truck is very tall...

she hit face first...
I jumped out ran around to her...
she was just coming too...
she broke her nose...
teeth through upper lip...
cut through her bottom lip...
the paramedics came to check her out...
I took her to the emergency room...
a friend of the family is head nurse there...
she met us at the door...got us right in...
thank goodness none of her teeth were broken...
she had to have the cuts on her nose glued...
they put stitches in her upper lip...
Cat scan showed no concussion...
it was a very long day...
She went to see the plastic surgeon the next day...
he thought everything looked good...
she will go back when the swelling is down...
to make sure everything has healed properly...
her boy friend has been taking very good care of her...
he has not left her side since I got her home...
It's taken me several days to be able to write this post...
I felt so helpless there was nothing I could to do to stop it...
I have to say I never saw CVS employees move so fast...
they were very helpful...
the paramedics were very nice...
the staff at the hospital was awesome...
my daughter is in much better spirits today...
the wisdom teeth extraction had been very easy....
now for the healing of her face...
 
 
we will have our Mother's Day celebration next Sunday...
hope you all had a wonderful day....

Oh my, I am so sorry she blacked out. I can imagine that was a scary moment for you. Glad that she is doing okay and that your were able to get her seen quickly. Certainly not what she expected when getting her wisdom teeth pulled!!
Sending her a big ((HUG))

I am SOOO glad your daughter is feeling better!!! That sounds such an awful thing to have to go through!!! I am glad she has you plural and her boyfriend to look after her!!!
And I am glad you are calming down after such a traumatic experience!!!
My DD was coughing so hard she broke a rib in the winter. In Ethiopia. At least you are in the same city as your DD!!!
