so 2011 started a little like this for us.
i decided on a friday afternoon, the 7th, that the girls and i needed to get out of the house. it had been a pretty long week and i decided that i was ready. so we had naps, got ready, and headed to my parents for the afternoon, we had played for a bit and we were just ready to head home.
it was about 3:00 and i decided to look something up on the computer really quick. shay was right by me and then we got up and went out of the office for 2 minutes to talk to my mom. shay came in following me to talk to my mom and i usually don't wonder where shay is because....she is always by me.
so in comes shay right behind me and i don't' think anything about it but i look down at her and she came in carrying my dads blood pressure meds in a weekly plastic sorter. she had one open and was chomping....I grabbed her and started pulling what i could out and scraping her tongue. I ran to the sink and wouldn't let her swallow and just continued to get what I could out...
well from the looks of what i got out on the carpet on my moms floor and what i scraped out...i didn't know how much she had gotten. so on my way home i called chris and he said call poison control. so i tried a million times and couldn't get through so i called my mom and had her call. she did and they called me right away saying go to the hospital right away because since we don't' know how much she got...it could be bad and they need to monitor her for 4 hours.
well i called chris to have him meet me there. i felt like i was under investigation...it was awful!!! but no one was in the ER and so Shay could just run around and they would get her BP every 30 min. it was a long night...but a huge blessing that she didn't get hardly anything if anything at all...
she had all the nurses laughing and having a good time. i think they need to thank shay for being such an easy patient and wasting 4 hours off their watches... haha
