My First X-Ray

Mary asleep in her car seat. You can see a nice purple bruise over her right eye. Mary sitting up in the doctor's office. You can see the eye has swollen up.So tonight I got my first X-Ray (now I know what the letter X is for). I was at daycare and I was learning to walk but I tripped and fell banging my right eye on the bookshelf. I cried. My mommy came and got me and by the time I got home I was happy again and trying to walk. But mommy and daddy were a little concerned and so they took me to the emergency room… again.

This hospital visit was at a different hospital and we were in and out much faster but they were concerned too so they took an x-ray of my face because they were worried that my orbital bone might have been fractured.

I practiced walking more while we waited to get x-rayed. I’m getting pretty good and I can take like 8 – 10 steps without falling.

We wore lead aprons and daddy had to hold my chin up so they could get a good picture. I cried. But now I have my first X-ray and even my daddy is in it You can see his hand under my chin. It looks like he is choking me. He-he.

Mary's x-ray. It looks normal and you can see daddy's hand under her chin.

    Mr. Mark. My daddy said to stop encouraging me. But he will definitely buy me a helmet.
