Minor Emergency

My two-year-old daughter had a minor emergency a couple of days ago. She was playing with her brother on their sister's bed (she was at her nana's house), the top bunk bed, and what happened next is anyone's guess. If you ask my son he says "she fell or jumped off the bed". If you her, she says "Elliott pushed me off the bed".
I was downstairs talking to my husband. We both heard a "thud" and then crying. We ran up the stairs to see my daughter crying, laying on the floor, and blood coming out of both of her nostrils.

I began to scold my son, thinking he pushed her off the bed. Then, I stopped myself and apologized to him. I asked him what had ahppened, and I got his reply. I asked my daughter, and she told me her reply.

We took Frankie (the two-year-old) downstairs where she vomited. We think she vomited because she was crying and had herself worked up. We got her cleaned off and calmed down and looked at her face again. I have never seen blood coming out of both the nostrils at once that would not stop, not that I have vast experience, but it was bad.


I took her to the emergency room, nowhere else being open after hours and the doctor told us she did not break anything. (Thank God) She has a couple of bruises on her face and she would complain of her nose hurting, but she refused any medicine for it. We had to take her to the doctor the next day, and they confirmed that she did not break her nose, had no swelling, and no bruising, and that she would be fine. She's okay now though and no permanent damage done.

You know how you say, I would take the pain over my children anyday? Well, I did! On my way up the stairs to find out what the screaming and crying was all about I broke my pinkie toe.
