ER!

Saturday night we were at the play place when Roscoe ran into another kid on the slide and bit his tongue. It was bleeding bad and looked really deep so we decided to take him to the urgent care. When we got there they were closed, so we drove all the way to Ogden to take him to the after hours clinic there, the doctor there looked at it and said that he didn't have any experience stitching tongues and said we needed to take him to the ER. The third time really wasn't the charm, at the ER the doctor said we needed to take him to section where they can sedate people. After waiting there for awhile the doctor said it was bad enough that they would put stitches in it but that tongues heal pretty good so we could decide if we wanted him to get stitches or not. We opted to not (less trauma). Roscoe keeps asking if he can go back to see the doctor "because they have TVs in the rooms!"

The doctor said his tongue should heal in about 3 weeks without the stitches, his tongue will just be a little sore.
