Ryder's eye Injury!!

Ryder had an accident on monday, he was running around with a marshmallow gun made out of pvc pipe that his grandpa made, he tripped and fell and landed on the gun with his eye!,he cut the inside of his eyelid and there was blood everywhere, i freaked out, i thought he had poked his eye out. it was a really scary experience, i grabbed both of my kids and drove ryder to the hospital. He was so brave and barely cried , I was crying the whole way to the hospital and he kept telling me he was ok, The ER Dr. told me he was lucky that he didn't poke his eye out and that the cornea and pupil were intact and that it would heal on its own but still sent him to an eye doctor the next day. We went home and he slept for 3 hours, when he woke up he wouldn't open his eyes at all. He was acting blind and Marc decided to film him. I took him to the Dr. on Wednesday and luckily everything was perfect and he told us it will take 7 to 10 days for his eye to heal. He is doing great and we are so thankful it wasn't anything worse. Danger is his middle name!! Here are more pictures of his eye.....

How scary! I hate that feeling when the kid is hurt and you're fearing the worst has happened. I'm so glad everything is ok.
