FAMILY EMERGENCY SORTA
Booker came up with a hematoma in his ear flap. A big bruise actually but caught between the layers of cartilage.
So they have to open it up and clean it out. They will then stitch it in a kind of quilt shape to put the layers back together and clean all the ear out.
While he is at it he will get his teeth cleaned. An anesthesia opportunity.
It is a big deal. 1500.00. But there is nothing else to do. He will have to wear the "collar of shame" for awhile and have a dressing on the ear, held down blah blah. Pills and all that. They are probably doing him right now and he will be home after supper.
They are super professional and vigilant. I have just spoken to the doctor. She is not doing the actual work but is in touch. We feel good about it all. we switched docs because the other guy goes away in the summer now and we want a full timer.
