Tough Wee Girl



Well it's been a couple of weeks since my last post and in that time Hannah had a nasty accident.Last Thursday morning she slipped out of the back of her stroller on to her head while being lifted up some steps.She was rushed to hospital and had x-ray's and CAT scans which revealed a small fracture on her skull,luckily there was no cut to her head and only very slight internal bleeding which stopped almost immediately.
Janicel and I spent a sleepless night at her bedside and by the next morning she was kicking,crying and even smiling at us. By Friday afternoon the doctors were very pleased with her progress and behaviour and said as she is so young the slight fracture would heal very quickly and the very small amount of internal blood will get absorbed over time.
They were happy enough to allow her home on friday afternoon much to our relief.We have two check ups booked for her in two and six weeks time, but just looking at her now you wouldn't think anything had happened but what a fright it gave us as we only brought her home from the maternity ward 25 days ago.
