morgan has an acute concussion...

i havent posted in a while, but thought id share my story. 

daycare called this morning when i was work and said morgan had fallen and passed out for maybe 30 seconds (the girl said it felt like 30 minutes) then was really sleepy and had glossy eyes, then just seemed out of it and still really sleepy.  so of course i called the dr and he said bring her right in.  we live in a VERY rural area so i picked her up at daycare and she was cranky and trying to lay her head down.  one of her fav daycare girls rode with me the 30 minutes into town to see the dr and keep morgan awake on the ride.  there they checked to see if she had any bleeding, but are limited in what they can do at the office.  she suggested we take her to a bigger city (it's about 1.5 hrs away) after they determined she wasn't in any immediate danger.  i took off straight for the big hospital for her for a CT scan from the drs office.   basically we just have to let her sleep it off and give her motrin.  she has a huge black and blue mark on her head above her eye.  And yes, she can sleep it off because the CT scan showed only normal things.  when we got home she started vomiting, but is acting totally normal now. 

just a crazy day.  so scary, but so glad its all over.
