Alec's ER Visit tonight

Ok, so got a call from Alec that he had hurt his head pretty bad while playing basketball after school, One of the coaches he was playing with ( big guy) came down on Alec with His Elbow,cutting his head and giving him a terrible headache, which then lead to dizziness, lightheaded, and sick to his stomach... I told him to let me talk to scott and told Scott to take him to urgent care right away, sounded like a concussion . HE said ok.. well urgent care was closed ( something to do with remodeling) so off they went to the ER, ( and for those who followed the fact that Scott stayed home last Sunday while I drove MYSELF to the ER, well all I can say is the Gods work in mysterious ways). They were there for a few hours, had a CT scan of his precious brain, and was told that YES, he had a concussion. My poor baby... He also has a headache to say the least. But he is going to be ok, and can still play sports ( a fact he is happy about) , just no contact sports for the next week. All this while I was at work at the Scrapbook nook.....
Ok, so can we be done with ER visits for a while?

Poor sweetie! Hopefully he is feeling better now (since I am late in reading this post). Concussions are very scary. My brother has had at least 10 (totally serious). He can't play football anymore b/c if he gets another concussion he could have some serious damage...so he plays rugby. Football w/o helmets. Men.
