Oh no! I cannot imagine the pain he must have been out! I would have been freaking out. Prayers for a speedy recovery. One of these days, he’ll laugh when he tells this story, but… I certainly can relate…one summer my youngest was at the ER 3 times! Great layout, Katy. I love your pages. TFS..

He is doing amazing! You can barely even tell - he's having a hard time finishing the last 2 doses of antibiotic though...ugh. Our middle child broke so many bones they ran a test on his bones to see how fragile they were. Not fragile at all, he was just a very active teenager with no fear...lol

All the little attention to detail that you put into your layouts is so good. Love everything about this (well except the circumstances and what you and he went through). So many good little tips and tricks along the building of this.

My husband was deep sea fishing back in February with his brother. I'm not sure how it happened, but my husband wound up with a hook in his finger. Alcohol may have been a factor...brotherly shenanigans was probably the rest. LOL Wishing your son a speedy recovery.
@scrappinkatyАй бұрын
Thank you! My niece caught my sister's arm one time but the hook was small and the barb didn't go very deep so we were able to remove it by the river bank and poor some "alcohol" on it...lol

oh my gosh Katy I can so relate my boys cry wolf on me all the time too. And just this weekend my son was in a really bad head on collision and thank God he was OK. He was two hours away and I got a call telling me that his jeep was totaled and he was in the emergency room, and my first reaction was “yeah right!” And then I heardotgers in the S kground and knew he was telling the truth this mama got dressed real quick and ran into the emergency room two hours away!!! anyway your layout is great. I’m so happy that you scrapbooked a sad unbelievable event…even when not everything is happy in our lives. I also like scrapbooking the unusual and sad things too.

Thank goodness when my husband tried that trick with his three pronged fishing hook he only got my upper arm & not my face. As it was we were in the middle of no where & so he dug it out of my arm with a blunt, rusty fishing knife!! Yes, it hurt as it had gone under a tendon but he managed to get it out & I had a first aid kit & so survived the ordeal with just a scar. He was more worried about his hook as it was his last one!! Lesson learnt, I never went fishing with him again as it is a dangerous sport for the onlookers, no matter how far away they are standing. Certainly needed documenting as a future reminder that fishing can be a dangerous activity, A great double page layout.
@scrappinkatyАй бұрын
Thank you, Louise! I saved the lure thinking he'd want to add another hook and use it but I think he's wanting it as a "trophy" for now...lol. Hooks can definitely be dangerous!

He was such a trooper. He wanted them to pull it out while he was awake but there was just no way. That are doesn't have a lot of nerve in it so I think the putting him under was more for the doctor removing it (and us watching) than it was for him. I had to look away a time or two.
