Oops!

 Matt was cutting a banana and accidentally cut open his finger. It was bleeding really bad and looked quite deep from what I could tell so I took him to the insta-care up the road debating the whole time whether it was necessary or not.
 We got there and checked-in. Matt wanted to go play with the toys and so we headed over to the middle of the room and Matt started playing toys. Well, this one kid kept getting in his face and playing right next to him. After a few minutes the Mom says, "Has your kid been throwing up too?" I said, "No, has yours?" Mom says, "Oh yeah he and his sister have been throwing up all day long!" I intermediately grabbed Matthew and took him to the bathroom to wash his hands. Who just lets their kids play with other kids when they have been throwing up?? Seriously!! The kids was obviously fine and did not need to be there in my humble opinion! Anyway, me and another Mom with a well child quarantined a room and kept the sick kids out.
 After a while a nurse came and looked at Matthew's finger and said she felt like we should stay and have it looked at so we did.
Matt and the CNA that checked him out.
 After an hour and a half we made it to triage. By that time Matt's finger had stopped bleeding and it didn't look as bad as it did before. The two nurses were really awesome and told me they couldn't recommend that I leave but that if he was their child they would go. Enough said and I was out of there!!! Still waiting for the bill....which I hope they never send. :)
After we came home to lots of love and nice notes for Matthew. The next few days his finger would bleed pretty bad when we changed the band-aid and I second guessed myself but in the end it healed very nicely.
