we had quit a strange evening last night.
« on: January 21, 2012, 09:18:50 am »
My youngest daughter (12yo) was to a youth-night of our church, she goes there every Friday night.
on the way back she was with some friends and the road was covered with some ice.
three kids felt of there bikes and my daughter was the third one.
she fell back wards with the back of her head on the edge of the sidewalk.....
this all happened  half a mile away from our home so after we get a a call  :o and went over with the car.
she had lot of pain and blood on the back of her head.  we went home first and later to the emergency doctor at 23:15.
had to drive 12 miles to the doctors post.....   >:(
she had a large 1" wound :o and the doctor put in  two stitches, he also was thinking that she has a brain concussion, we had to wake her every 1,5 hour all night.
to get rid of all the excitement we went to MC Donald's at 00:30 for some ice cream and hamburgers. LOL  ;)

today she still has a head ache but seems to be OK.  :)

I'm glad she's doing all right.  Explain to her how important a helmet is!

I'm pleased she not hurt too badly, but Karl is right, A helmet is most important.
It's all a case of "Mind over Matter",  The Government don't Mind, and I don't Matter.

don't know why but in Holland we normally don't use helmets on the bike......
for young children (age 3-6yo) they get more common, but when you can ride  a bike you hardly see anyone using a helmet.

I'm thankful God watched over her and kept her from serious injury. Although it may be a wake up call about protecting yourself in icy conditions.

Glad she is ok. It is hard when a kid gets injured. Especially a head injury like this. It is a sobering experience.
