I ended up spending most of the afternoon today at the ER with the hubby. He left with 2 stitches and 4 staples in his scalp. Good fun.

He's ok, just has a bad headache. I heard from the other people that were around when he got hurt that it looked like a murder scene. I joked with him when I got to the ER that it looked like he was auditioning for a horror movie because he had dried blood all over.

My father-in-law owns a rental property and he, hubby and a couple other guys were doing maintenance work there. There were icicles hanging in front of rear service door they wanted to use so hubby started breaking them off. A big chunk of ice started sliding off the roof - stuck in the chunk was a cable attached to an old TV antenna that was mounted on the roof. Well, the ice slid off and pulled the antenna down with it. The antenna left a 2 inch gash in hubby's head, part of it was almost down to his skull. Thankfully there were other people there because hubby left his cell at home. They did a catscan and everything was ok, thank God. He just needed 2 stitches under the skin and the 4 staples. I'm just glad I wasn't there when it happened, I can't stand the sight of blood. Plus I would have been freaking out. Our best friend was there and he stayed cool and tried to stop the bleeding.

OMG! Head wounds bleed ridiculously! I am glad he is OK. Dang ice. It can be very dangerous when it comes off the roof. Does not sound like much fun for you!

Talk about a freak accident! Life can be so fragile!! So glad he's OK

Thanks for your concern! The funny thing is that he was more concerned in the ER that they would have to shave that spot on his head to do the staples because he would have ended up shaving his head completely rather than have one bald spot. What a dork...lol

His head is kind of pointed, and when he shaves it he looks exactly like his dad. I'm not ready for him to look that much like his dad just yet.
