It was hot, he was running around for the whole 3/4 of an hour (he's always hyper at these things)...but just before we finished he threw himself down onto a high mat and ended up landing at the end of it, his head slammed down onto a lower mat, his neck crooked in this terribly weird angle. I picked him up, he lay there. I then stood him up and he fell down. The second time I picked him up he started wobbling and shaking like he was having some kind of fit. Raced him out to the foyer, they checked him over, gave him a cool pack, a drink etc. Soooo scary! Made me sick to the stomach. I still feel ill.

Long and short, he's ok. They think it was a combination of heat and disorientation due to the fall. Been told to take him straight to hospital if he starts talking about having a headache, if he becomes disorientated or fits again etc.

I'm just *so* not cut out for this parenting stuff!

I'd take him in, Just in Case. And you sound to me like a fabulous parent!!! Adopt me, please?

I miss you guys. I feel dumb from living in the South so long. I think I'm starting to become like the rest of the Kevin’s Watch-less people.

Maybe it's time I came back and felt neurons working again. It's just a big block in my skull. I don't know if it’s the numbness of work or what.

I'm still writing, though barely. My story, Part VI of the Trimur-Nakati Conflict, is up to 40 pages.

I'll be back soon, once I'm sure I'm making all As (or at least As and Bs). Sorry if I offended you, Quee, with the silly avatar thing way back. Just me being Foul.

Really makes me smile to hear from you guys. My grandfather had congestive heart failure and was in the hospital awhile. Don't worry about him, though; he's a trooper, as usual!

I'm not so tough. With home issues and exercise and keeping good grades in school, sometimes the balance slips. I cried for the first time in years, I think, while up at the college today. Just found a bathroom and let it out.

Just gonna level out and keep on working.[/spoiler]

Great to see you around LF :)

My son (I have terribly accident-prone kids) managed to (I suspect but will know later) either break of sprain his foot after riding his bicycle into a pole...I've walked into a pole before but that's an entirely different story.

I once watched a girl dance on a pole before, but that's an entirely different story from your entirely different story.

Thanx Jenn. Yeah, he's doing fine. Just must have been one of those "things". I mean, he's such a go-go-go kid he's bound to hurt himself once in while.

And Guns, um...sure...I'll adopt you. Not sure what your wife will think though, or do I have to adopt her too! ;)
