Jasper Off to the Emergency Room at the Takua Paa Hospital

He got mad at his sister for locking him out of the room and kicked the door. Unfortunately the door was made out of glass panels and he kicked his foot through, slicing the bottom of it. At first there was just the sound of breaking glass, then nothing, then crying that started softly and built up to a frantic sobbing. Gee and I ran outside to investigate and Kennedy was carrying him down our outside stairs from the 2nd story, small blood puddles on the floor from the glass door to the stair landing. We had given the truck to the Manteca Team to drive themselves to the island so Kennedy could work on his Sunday sermon, so we had no transportation. Kennedy ran over to the house Dean is renting for Marcus and they graciously allowed us to use their vehicle. I didn't go with them to the hospital, I knew it wasn't going to be fun. Kennedy told me later how much he screamed and cried when they gave him a painkilling shot and cleaned the wound. He has 3 little black stiches and he has to go to the clinic to get his wound cleaned and rebandaged every day for a week. Our emergency room bill was $11 total including medicine.
