Brayden- Accident

For the last two days we have had Makayla on the couch with Tonsilitis. But, this evening Brayden was in the bathroom, (Suppossed to be sitting in the empty tub... waiting for his sister to get out of the shower, so we could fill the tub up) In the mean time he decided he was going to push a stool over and climb up on the counter. The only problem was, he had walked through water. So, when he got up on the counter and was making silly faces at his sister through the glass shower.. He slipped and fell into the shower, banging his he on the tiled ledge on the floor to keep the water in the shower.... Immediately he was limp, and non responsive. After a few seconds, he opened his eyes, and immediately started wimpering. But, couldn't talk, or walk, and he had a massive lump. We rushed him to the children's hospital which took him immediately through the er, and straight to a ward.

He was checked hourly to see how he progressed after his concussion. He had a hematoma on the back of his head, and they were worried about the pressureit was putting on his brain stem..

Every hour, they would take his blood pressure, check his eyes, temp, and make him walk. Funny thing is, he was so out of it, when he woke up at the 7:00am check, this was the first time he said, where am I? and noticed there was a fish above his bed, even though it had been there all night long. :)

All in all. GOD is good and he kept Brayden safe! within 24 hours you couldn't even tell anything had happened to him. He still has a massive lump, and will for a few weeks.

And, when we got home, he was straight back to climbing again! :( So, hopefuly we can make it to three without a "cast"! But, he is a very energetic two year old!!!

Thank you to everyone who was praying and keeping up with us on facebook what was happening.
