Sam had a bad fall at the corner of his bed and got a deep cut jut below his left eye brow… I got scared at the sight of blood first, but then I just washed it with water to see how deep it is and if I can apply some antiseptic… but it turned out to be a 1 centimeter cut which would only be stitched. I called my neighbour and rushed to the doc… meanwhile I had applied palm pressure on his wound so that the bleeding stops. And thankfully it did!

At the hospital Sam was smiling at the Dr and he thought that its just minor scratch since the baby is not at all crying! but when they cleaned it up, they found it big enough to be given 3 stitches!!!! Then Dr asked if I would be OK to hold him while they do the stitching but I wasn’t too sure….  because I was on the verge of crying out loud but somehow trying to control since I was alone with him at the hospital and had to manage everything till my  husband arrived…

Then i decided to go inside the room and held his arms, another person held his head tightly and one held his feet, while the Dr did his work … those 8 minutes were again one of the toughest moments so far … but he was fine after coming home and started playing all over again … :) After all its just a part of growing up … He would be fine soon!
