Almost a week ago I took dd to the park - she was running round one of the buildings in the park - a currently empty wooden hut where they sell icecream - and fell onto a vent pipe sticking out of the hut when coming round a corner at speed. Didn't know there was one there and it is a complete fluke dd fell on it - tripping in a certain way , not taking the corner properly .
Anyway she cut her face across her cheek - it bled but not for too long and she did not need stitches. I had it looked at by a nurse who thought it was quite superficial and would not scar.
However I keep running it over in my mind thinking I should have been watching her more carefully. I am also worried that it will scar and that this will cause problems for her . It still looks really red and angry.
Not really looking for any advice - just feeling a bit emotional. As regards the cut I have been applying aloe vera gel and will start with bio oil once the scab is off . There does seem to be quite a red mark though, I hope it will fade in time.....
