Stitches

Jack had an incident on his mountain bike last week and had to get stitches.
The first one of our kids to have them, which is pretty amazing to me.
He was riding and his leg slipped off of the pedal and hit the gears.


He said it didn't hurt, but it looks like it does to me!


We took him to the insta care and they numbed it up and washed it out really good. You can see the gear marks in his leg.


Eleven stitches later!


He went with his friend Chase and his dad Allen and on the ride when he got hurt. Allen told him that if he needed stitches he would bring him the Jerry award, and award he gives out to those who break a bone or have to get stitches when he rides with him. They had Jack's name engraved on it, the 7th person to have the honor on the trophy. Jack loved it!! 
The stitches did not slow this boy down he ran a track meet, had soccer practices and went snowboarding all with his stitches in.
