Katie stopped off to visit Sadbh’s school nurse
this morning to give her an update on the concussion. It was agreed that Sadbh
was to take it easy on the playground and refrain from PE activities. The nurse
then sent an email to the teachers and playground monitors explaining the
procedure.
This worked for the first few hours and then I
got the call. During recess Sadbh was watching her friends swinging on the
parallel bars and decided to join it. Unfortunately, she knocked her head on
the bars and had to visit the nurse’s office. Sadbh complained of blurred
vision in her left eye so the nurse called me to come collect her.
We contacted her pediatrician to see if we should
bring her in. After discussing everything with her pediatrician’s office they
figured that she was ok to stay at home and rest up for the remainder of the
day.
Sadbh is not one for taking it easy so by
evening time we were all exhausted. Thankfully she did not experience any
further issues.
All the best,
Wayne, Katie, Sadbh and Cillian
