Mekiah had his first trip the emergengy room on Christmas day, in the evening. He split open his chin on the edge of the bath tub. At the ER they had to wrap him up in a sheet ,like a straight jacket, and it took three of us to hold him down while the doctor put in seven stitches. Mekiah got so mad about being held down that he even spit at the doctor. I was quite shocked but the doctor seemed like it happened all the time and said, " Oh, he's a spitter". It took four people to hold him down to get the stitches taken out. Mekiah is very independent and none of it was his idea. Well, at least we have a Christmas to remember!
