Please tell me to get a grip!
DD's had their imms today (a battle of conscience for me anyway) and during the injection of MMR into DD1's arm, the nurse hit the bone, struggled then took ages to inject. When she withdrew the needle, it was bent from hitting the bone in DD1's arm, she's very slender.
Then had to go through the process with DD2, which DD1 witnessed and which really, really upset her.
The nurse felt awful regarding the struggle with one of the two imms DD1 was having. Apologised and was obviously upset.
I probably should have held her more firmly but they injected in two arms at the same time and I lost my grip on one arm and though I was still holding it.
Oh FFS, please just tell me that these things happen and to stop gibbering!
