MeadWestvaco hosted a 3 on 3 basketball tournament for employees and Jerry got sucked into playing. He took a hit to his eye but didn't realize how bad it was until he saw the blood start flowing. Jerry really didn't want to go to the hospital but at everyone's insistence he gave in. He called me on the way to have me meet him but mostly to have me find a doctor to see him without going to the Emergency Room. His wallet was definitely hurting him worse than his head!! He did manage to avoid the E.R. but couldn't avoid the six stitches he needed!
Will was really concerned about Jerry. He told me if he had been there he would have put some paper towels IN Jerry's eye. I kept asking if he meant on his cut and he kept saying no, IN his eye. Finally I asked him if he thought that would be very nice and he told me that it would keep Jerry from seeing the cut because it always hurts more if you look at it! Then he told me he was going to give Daddy some of his favorite cereal when we got home and that he could eat the whole box if he wanted to!
