Not that kind of stitch!

Stephen helped me load up the truck with sewing machines and fabric so I could go to Hilo, Agujo y Biblia this morning.  As usual I can depend upon the guards at the church to help me unload.  It was great catching up with the ladies and showing them all the great baby things that were donated by several community groups at our home church.  We are going to give the baby things to one of the public hospitals here in San Salvador along with the baby quilts the ladies have been working on for the last 3-4 months.  We have completed more than 15!

Jeff picked up Stephen and they also came to church to load up one of the inflatables for an activity tomorrow.  The  inflatable storage area is small and the ceilings are low.  Unfortunately, a nail caught and cut Stephen on the top of his head.  Everyone says that head wounds bleed alot and, from what Jeff said, his was no exception.  I was inside the church so I didn't hear about it until after he was somewhat cleaned up.  Thankfully, Dr. Lopez (Koky) was in his dental office which is on the church property.  He promptly installed Stephen in his dental chair and stitched the wound closed.  After all, it's not easy to use a butterfly bandage on the head and I doubt you find many of those bandages in dental offices.  Stephen's last tetanus was in 2007; so he is good.  Koky prescribed some antibiotic cream which he will use 3 times a day.

That's just how we roll here in El Salvador!
