Josh Oliver has done it again to his lip!
This time he was trying to catch a ball at recess yesterday and somehow fell into the wall.
He has a gash all the way from the front of his lip around and up to the gum inside.
He didn't get stitches this time, though. He lucked out with it mostly on the inside of his lip!
He's doing alright with it today. His lip is super swollen--way more than you can see from straight on. He has trouble biting into food because it puts pressure on his lip, he's talking a little funny, and it seems to bleed here and there, but he hasn't really been complaining about it.
On the plus side, he said he now holds the record for both the most blood spilled and the most paper towels used by any kid at St. Catherine's! It's the only thing that got him through the day yesterday!
Now I just have to pray that it heals up nicely.
We lucked out with his "can" scars being only barely noticeable. I hate to think he's going to have a new one.
