today is the first time i experience such a terrible accident that happened in my class, in front of my eyes! it was nerve-wrecking and scarrryyy.
there's this little boy who is forever running around the class despite my constant reminders! and the next thing i know, he fell down and hit his head on the chair by the side. omg. its a child-safety chair with no sharp edges! but he had a cut on his upper eye lid, less than 1cm away from his eyeballs!!!!! and it was bleeding super badly that i screamed when i saw it! the blood dripped down even faster than his tears. it streamed down his face onto his clothes and my clothes! gosh. i couldnt even bear to see the wound. i quickly took a tissue and added pressure before slowly looking at the wound. it swelled... and den i suddenly forgot everything i have learnt from first aid.
next thing i know, i was on the way to the clinic to get his wound dressed. my heart still pounded furiously. but he was really brave! he stopped crying a while later and enjoyed sucking on my mentos! we went to the children clinic and the doctor just took some cotton bud, clean a bit and recommend him to a doctor in the hospital for stitches and charged 70 bucks for that! so so so expensive!
but luckily he went down to the hospital for the stitches treatment. the doctor said that his eye muscles are exposed! and need to stitch it back quickly. the cut was quite big. and the skin came out. thank goodness his skin was pushed upwards and he needed to pull the skin down and stitch it back. lucky the skin was still there. or else he would need to do skin grafting!!! gosh. that would hopefully teach him not to run around in the class!
): it was really a scary accident that i have learnt how to deal with. i do hope he recovers soon!
