I thought that was awesome because he actually spent time trying to get it out. <br />The ER, however, sent me a bill for almost a thousand dollars and the docs there didn't even do ANYTHING. We weren't sent back to a room, they didn't try to get it out, they didn't listen to Grace's breathing. Nothing. All they did was look up her nose with a light. We were only there for five minutes. I ended up filing a complaint and the bill was eventually wiped out. Whew!Kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14339665205284492242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7390236678783638686.post-81694394490925899162011-08-26T07:55:16.267-05:002011-08-26T07:55:16.267-05:00Lindsay- After all the trauma in the docs' of...Lindsay- After all the trauma in the docs' office (it took three of us to hold her down while the doc tried to suck it out) everytime someone even wanted to look at it she freaked out. After we got home I just let her calm down a bit and eat some dinner (it was almost bedtime at this point). Then I calmly talked to her and told her what I wanted to try. I let her look at the tweezers and feel it and know that mommy wouldn't hurt her. I gave her a flashlight to hold and she actually sat still. I COULD NOT believe it. I was AMAZED. I kept talking about it later how shocked I was that she was so good for me after how much she struggled with the docs and my sweet little Tommy said, "That's because she loves you and not the doctors, mom!" Awwww. Maybe true. ;)Kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14339665205284492242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7390236678783638686.post-65974381550265351632011-08-25T23:55:42.799-05:002011-08-25T23:55:42.799-05:00Oh dear...sounds like my Addie - TROUBLE!!

Crazy that after all that, you got it out! My youngest son once stuck a piece of crayon so far up his nose we had to take him to the ER, and they eventually had to have him go to sleep with medicine in order to get it out, that bill was not pretty.Riahlihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08525310321786184469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7390236678783638686.post-86532199063460405392011-08-19T16:38:55.263-05:002011-08-19T16:38:55.263-05:00I have a hard time accepting that you couldn't...I have a hard time accepting that you couldn't get a doctor to help with this procedure.

Plus, she has such a TINY nose that the docs said a sneeze probably wouldn't help.<br />And yes. Innocence of childhood is precious. I thought of that yesterday as we waited in the hospital too. Oh that all families' biggest worry was a Lego in the nose.
