While Grandma was here visiting, we went to a Fall festival at David's school. They had lots of fun games to play and prizes to win. The first game Nathan played was a golf game with little Velcro balls that you got onto the felt wall target. David was showing Nathan how to hit the golf ball. Nathan swung the club and with a very nice back swing, hit David right in the ear. I took David to the bathroom to clean it up and get a closer look at the wound. We found that the club sliced through the ear and cut the scalp as well and that we would need stitches. Luckily, we were so close to the hospital we just walked there and Grandma stayed at the festival with the kids.
David ended up getting 11 stitches in total. They had to call an ENT in to stitch up the ear because they were afraid it might have cut the cartilage. He had 2 inside stitches and 5 surface stitches on his ear and 4 stitches on his scalp. They had to put a bolster on it to prevent cauliflower ear and they had to Pierce his ear twice to put it in. Ouch.
