Don't Forget to take your blade guards off.

Cutie had her first set of stitches. We were at Synchro practice and late as usual. Getting there by 4pm on a weeknight is close to impossible. We put her skates on and I wanted to take the blade guards off. She wanted to protect her skates while walking to the rink. Slammed right on her chin. First we went to Emergency care down the road. They don't do stitches. Then we went to Nyack hospital. It was a very pleasant hospital experience. In and out in 30 min with 8 chin stitches later.
I however almost fainted when they injected Novocaine into the split skin.
She was a trooper.
