A first for the McCarthy clan - Ayden was happily climbing around his grandparents room, when he decided to balance and swing with support from two chairs. Unfortunately, he lost his balance and went head first into the corner of the coffee table - there could only be one winner.
A rush to the hospital with Maria and his Auntie Nana speeding off, leaving Donncha on a conference call (not a good choice!). The doctor happily recommended paper stitches for Ayden which would work for kids that sit on the couch for 7 days and don't move. As most of you know, Ayden has a little more energy than that and it was Friday, so we all headed off to the Yacht Club. After dinner and a run around the play area, it wasn't long before the plaster and paper stitches were gone !
Off we went, back to the hospital, this time for a much more practical solution. A slightly nervous Ayden was extremely brave as the doctor inserted a single stitch which we hope will remain in place for a week needed for a nice scar to appear.
As you can see, he's happily back to normal and proudly displaying his first true war wound !
