A Girl with a Stitched Eyebrow, 1996, by Cierra
From MemoryArchive
Who: Cierra, Mom, Grandma and the doctor What: I was being hard headed and fell. When: 1996 Where: Washington, D.C.
This happened at 12 noon. That day it was me, my grandma and mom. My mom accidently hit me with the door. I was on the ground there was blood everywhere. This was important because I could have dropped dead like a jelly spread.
My mom told me to stop walking on that log before someone hit me with the door. I was being hardheaded and kept on walking on the log going back and forth. Then my mom came out the door and hit me in the head and I fell. The door hit me in my head and all the blood splashed everywhere. It was all over the door and my mother and the doctor's face. My doctor had to go change his uniform. Then the needle stuck him in his arm and blood was everywhere because I was kicking and screaming then I smacked a tray. That's when the needle stuck him. I was crying when the doctor looped the first stitch. Then my grandma came and brought me a soda. Then I was so much better. I was so upset because I should have listened. I guess my mother tells me everything for a reason. I almost died but I'm here. That was close. Hey, next time I will listen. Wouldn't you!!!
