I am sure many have all heard, via Facebook, that Emma got bit by a boston terrier this week. She was walking with two other neighborhood girls who were returning two dogs to their owners, one street over. The dogs were on leashes as they headed around the block. When they were one house away, one of the dogs (
pictured below) lunged at Emma. She put her arms up protecting her face and it bit down on he
r left arm, under her bicept. The dog hung there for a few seconds before Emma could get him off. She was taken to Toledo Hospital where she was given 9 stitches on her lacerations. We later found out that these dogs have been loose before, running around the neighborhood. She is pretty sore but, in good spirits. The only bummer is that she is heading off to summer camp on Monday.

Well, last night we ended back into the ER because we thought one of the wonds was infected. We were right and Emma is not admitted at The Toledo Children's Hospital. They have had her on IV antibiotics and re-open the wounds to drain out the infection. It seems like she will be here for a few days. Unfortunately, that means no summer camp this year.
Steve meant to say that "we were right and Emma is NOW (not "not") admitted to Toledo Children's Hospital last night.
