Yesterday was Baby’s unlucky day. There was a party organized by the condo management yesterday evening. The girls were having loads of fun playing and running around at the corridor next to the pool side where the party was held. Baby was running like a puppy off the leash, as fast as she could and I could not catch up with her. First she rammed into her little aunt’s back and fell, landing on the back of her head, like a tortoise that had turned upside down. She bawled. About 15 minutes later, she gave me another heart beat flatline. She ran into a boy who was on his scooter and fell… then the boy on the scooter ran over her right leg (shin). She yelled her lungs out. I was shocked. I quickly pulled her up and saw a dent and some grazes on her shin. I thought that her leg was broken… imagine a 8-9yo chubby boy on his steel scooter (total weight around 25kg) ran over her leg!!! There was an immediate blue black bruise on the leg. We quickly took ice cubes and applied on the leg… and forehead. There was also a bruise on her forehead. Gosh, Baby cried uncontrollably for at least 15 minutes…. while I applied ice cubes on her leg and forehead. The boy apologized politely and appeared guilt stricken… then his mum came to apologize. After the cry-out session, we put Baby on the ground and asked her to walk. My fear and worry were allayed when she walked and ran again like a puppy let out of the cage. God has sent a guardian angel to watch over and protect my Cassandra. She had survived 2 major surgeries and 4 horrible accidents (a stroller accident with me about 2 years ago, a fall from 2 stacked-up plastic chairs at a coffee shop, a fall from her booster seat on the dining table chair and this scooter accident). Thank you Lord for watching over Cassandra and please continue to protect her always, Amen!
Baby eating organic rice crackers, soy bean crackers and soup for dinner last Sunday. She was down with fever and purging for 3 days. Alycia and Sherilyn were down with fever and purging too this week and had skipped school for a week.
