Wow... what a day... can't type much now as it is late.  Just came in from my run.  Got a curve ball today.  My son fell and I had to take him to the emergency room, initially thought he was going to get stitches (in his lip) but he avoided them.  They put some type of glue in the cut and in a couple of days they say it should be ok.  Oh... he decided to go down the slide at school head first... only 2.5 years old    :-o

Run tonight was fairly easy.  Really intended to at minimal go 6 and had ambitions of going 9.  HOWEVER found that I had to stop for nature :-)  I guess that is a good thing about going in the morning.  Haven't had to take a pit stop before! :-)  Hopefully the late run does not get me off track in the morning.  Only time will tell.

My son had some of the glue stuff used instead of stitches and it worked great! So sorry for the trauma, though. Sounds like your kiddo is going to be a brave one!

I love the glue (dermabond) when we use it in the ER...so much less traumatic!!!

Ha... that is some type of "magic" glue! In about a day we have gone from thinking he may have needed stitches to the wound looking like it is healed (externally) :-) Thanks for the experienced info. I have a feeling that even though we avoided the stitches with this event.... with Jonathan's energy; it may not be the last. Glad to know technology is improving! Hey... sticks and stones may break his bones..but dermabond glue can fix the cuts! lol
