Basketball Battle Wound

Nick called from work on Friday and said his buddy, Clark from work, had invited us to join him and his wife Jen at the Basketball game. I thought it sounded like great fun, so Spencer and I got all ready and met Nick at his office at 7:00 and headed to the game. We were having a great time visiting, watching the game and eating Nachos. Spencer was having fun playing with their little daughter and watching the game. He kept saying B-Ball over and over while clapping for anything that seemed fun! Things were going great and then... a sudden trip and he fell. Landing his lip on the corner of a cement step - perfect hit (how do they do that?) Needless to say, it was sad! His three front teeth went through his upper lip leaving three gushing holes for blood! Truly it didn't bleed too long, but Nick was panicked and he had to pull himself together to hand me wipes and call his Brother Marc for medical advice. We ended up not taking him to the Hospital after the EMT from the arena took a look at him. We eased the pain with Motrin, Apple juice and Popsicles. Nick gave him a fathers blessing and we hoped everything would not scar too badly. Update: (Uncle Marc called to check on Spencer and we were able to report that he had a swollen lip for a few days, but didn't seem bothered by it. Things are healing awesome , and you almost can't tell that he even got hurt! )
