Kekai's golf accident




I've been really, really busy! Last Thursday Kainoa was golfing and got Kekai in the head by the left eye! Boy baby! He had a 2 inch cut, down to the bone, was bleeding everywhere! I was at school so mom called me there and told me they were taking him to the ER. I got there and he had an IV and they were trying to get a CAT scan but he wouldn't lie still. They gave him some Versad(sp) that made him kind of loopy and happy. As he went into the CAT scan, I told him it was going to take a picture of him and to say "cheese." He had the saddest look on his face and tried to say "cheese" between the whimpers. We got the CAT scan done and everything looked ok, except he had a sinus infection-this was the most expensive way to diagnose a sinus infection. They had to sedate him to do the stitches. He ended up with about 10 stitches outside and about 3 or 4 dissolvable stitches. He had a nice shiner!
The kids keep telling me that they are sure Kekai has brain damage because he has been so mean, throwing fits, taking things from them, screaming, etc.
He got his stitches out today. He screamed and kicked and wasn't very happy about it. There is one spot that reopened so we have steri-strips on there now. Poor kid!!!!
