First night at Fair Hills as I was unpacking at 8:30, Hattie was crawling around and playing on
the king sized bed. I was watching her but turned for a moment and when
I turned back I saw her falling. She hit the back of her head on the
ground and cried so loudly. Soon after she started acting strange. She
got really tired and lethargic and just wanted to lay on me. I went to
talk to Lindsay about what to look for if a concussion occurs. She had
just reassured me that Hattie was ok. I walked outside and Hattie
threw up. Oh man. Talk about panic. Jeff showed up just then and I
ran to the office to find out if there was a Dr. at the resort. The
receptionist gave me directions to the nearest ER. By the time I got
back Hattie had thrown up 3 more times. That was enough. We were off
to the ER but couldn't figure out how to get out of the resort! Talk
about frustration. In the car I was singing to her and trying to keep her awake and she just wanted to sleep. Finally I pulled out the "Brown Bear Brown Bear" book and she perked up and started looking at the pictures. She started smiling and giggling. No one was real concerned about her at the ER. By the time the Dr. finally came Hattie was totally back to normal, giggling, smiling, wanting to walk around. The Dr. did diagnose it as a concussion. Here are some pictures of Jeff and Hattie playing with the gloves, which were her favorite things! We are so thankful our prayers were heard during this scary time for Hattie.
