After a while in the beauty of the tide pools, Sara got excited and went ahead of Anna instead of following in her cautious footsteps. Sara slipped on moss and went down hard, right on the side of her head. She lost consciousness for several seconds and was dizzy and disoriented instead of crying in pain. This, of course, scared Anna and I a lot, so I picked her up and we struggled to carry her out of the tide pools and back to the car. She was heavy, the rocks were difficulty to walk on, Anna didn't have shoes (she left them at the beginning of the tide pools, and my flip-flop broke. After what seemed like forever, we finally got out of the tide pools, back to the beach. The top of her ear was bleeding a lot and she was still dizzy, so after a quick call to our great neighbor (who happens to be a pediatric nurse), we took her to the ER, still in her bathing suit and no shoes.
The ER was an experience in itself. In all we were there for 7 hours. It was our first trip to the ER for any of the kids (except when Rich took Anna in Mammoth for a stomach ache in 2007). By the time we waited to see the doctor 4 hours after we arrived, Sara was looking and acting much better and I was pretty confident that her head was OK. She finally got a CAT scan and her ear glued back together and we finally got to go home at 1am. Sara quite enjoyed the trip to the ER. It was novel and fun for her (and she felt like Bethany Hamilton since she was still in her bathing suit : ). She asked me to just leave and pick her up at 10am the next morning! Her CAT scan came back normal and after a couple of weeks her ear is finally healed.
Next time, she decided, she will not walk ahead of her big sister!

I am Mariam used every single spell worker on the internet, spent untold amounts of money and discovered they are all fakes...i was the fool though; doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. In the end, I decided that I wanted a tarot reading to know what my future held for me; I contacted a woman who lives locally to me and she told me about a man named (Priests Abija); he does not advertise on the internet, has another job for income, has no set prices, makes no false promises and refuses to help anyone that cannot be helped and even helps for free sometimes, he will give you proof before taking money. He is a wonderful man and he was the only person who actually gave me real results. I really hope he doesn't mind me advertising his contact on the internet but I'm sure any help/ extra work will benefit him.contact him here as (518) 303-6207 or spirituallighthealing101@live.com He travel sometimes.i cant give out his number cos he told me he don’t want to be disturbed by many people across the world..he said his email is okay and he’ will replied to any emails asap,love marriage,finance, job promotion ,lottery Voodoo,poker voodoo,golf Voodoo,Law & Court case Spells,money voodoo,weigh loss voodoo,any sicknesses voodoo,Trouble in marriage,HIV AIDS,it's all he does Hope this helps everyone that is in a desperate situation as I once was; I know how it feels to hold onto something and never have a chance to move on because of the false promises and then to feel trapped in wanting something
more.
