Jean-Marie Wound

I think I've received all the bills

Dr Vermeulens bill- our house doctor: R211.30, R108.90, R93.36 = R413.56
Narcotics Dr: R201.00, R439.48
Medi Clinic - the hospital: R860,00(the first time I went there - emergency room), R1007.10, R3780.20, R35.76, R3.75, R358.96 = R6045.77
ER - taking us to hospital the first time: if I remember correctly it is just over a R1000.00

This adds up to quite an amount!

Medi Clinic takes the cake with being rediculous in price!

Jean-Marie wound update

On friday morning we removed the old plasters as it was full of dried blood. The wound was open again. It was going to leave a nasty scar on her forehead.

I don't know if it was a blessing or not but last saterday morning just after six Jean-Marie fell again! Trying to kick a ball of all the things she could have done. Sad to say the wound started bleeding again. I took her to our GP - Dr Vermeulen and she recommended we open the wound again so she can put in some stitches under aneastetic.

It really took a lot out of me trying to make Jean Marie sleep without a milk bottle. Luckily my mom helped me. Big sister Cherise went to a birthday party and afterwards to grandma's. So I could just focus om Jean Marie.

I am still waiting to see what this little trip to the hospital will cost.

The last plaster over the stitches was removed this morning and it looks really good - if I think of how it looked the same time last week.
