My poor Colt man - painful pic inside

luvmykids wrote: He got nailed smack in the middle of his face with a baseball It looks a little worse now (about an hour after I took these pics), like someone took a purple marker and drew on either side of his nose. He's a tough little guy, I think daddy (who threw the ball) cried more than he did.

Calimama replied: Poor little guy!!! I hope he's not hurting. Give him tons of hugs from us.

3xsthefun replied: OUCH!! Poor boy!!

Maddie&EthansMom replied: Oh my gosh! Poor little man!! I hope it heals quickly.

I've been hit in the head with a baseball when I was in 4th grade and I hate the sport to this day!!

lisar replied: OMG that looks horrible. I hope it isnt as bad as it looks. Give him hugs

MoonMama replied: OH NO! Poor little guy, that looks like it hurts! I hope it heals and feels better fast!

luvmykids replied:
I asked him if he thought he'd be scared to play baseball again, he said "Definitely not today, we'll have to see tomorrow" But DH is leaving in the morning, so I think we're safe for awhile. I had to go outside and confiscate all the real baseballs that they were NOT supposed to be using in the first place

eta: In case you couldn't tell, those pics are from my phone which is why he looks like an alien (aside from the swelling).

CantWait replied: Ouch, Poor Colt, and poor Dad, I bet he feels horrible.
Colt seems to be holding up so well though, what a tough guy.

mammag replied: Poor guy! Hope it's getting better already. Was it broke?

luvmykids replied:
I don't think so, I called the dr again this morning and he said as long as it still looks straight, isn't more swollen on one side or the other, and the pain is lessening, he didn't think it was broken. He's feeling much better, although it looks terrible today...both his eyes are black and the swelling has gone down but is still definitely there. He doesn't want to sing in the Veterans Day program tomorrow because he's embarrassed

punkeemunkee'smom replied: Mon tell him Bill will think he is the coolest Bullrider ever! Just in time to move to Texas! Tell him the Veterans would think he was pretty stinkin cool too!

Danalana replied: Aww, poor Colt!
And poor Daddy!

When I was little, my step-brother and I were playing baseball (well, throwing it to each other). I was a huge tomboy and very good at baseball and football. He said "If you say 'bloody murder', I will throw it as hard as I can". Well, being a dummy, I yelled 'BLOODY MURDER!'...he let it fly, and it got some kind of wicked spin on it. It hit me right in the eyebrow I almost passed out! You should have seen the goose egg I was sportin'
