Do you know where the hospital is in Roosevelt, UT? We Do! That would be because the clinic at Starvation Reservoir in Duchesne does not have a doctor on staff. So, when Tom split his head open wake boarding, we had to drive half an hour to Roosevelt so put staples in his head.

We were just having a good time skiing. Then Tom fell, and the Board came up behind him and hit him in the head. Luckily, Tom and I had driven up in my car to meet those who had been at Scout Camp. So, Randy and the boys were able to pull the boat out of the water, while I made a mad dash for the doctor. The only problem was that none of our cell phones were charged. So I kept saying, "Now when my husband shows up, tell him...."

Ouch! Three staples in Tom's head! It is really scary to look down and see your child bleeding. And head wounds bleed a lot! But it turned out to be not such a big deal, but large enough that they chose to staple it together. Easier than stitches. Tom turned out to be very brave. We did look a little odd- we were the only ones in the Insta Care in Swimsuits! Luckily I had my shirt! and my swim shorts!
