Guess what this is....

Yep. It's an X-ray.
Why, you ask?
Well, because Barrett decided it would be a good idea to swallow a magnet.
And, not just any magnet, but a magnet with a Bakugan picture mounted on top of it. The nifty white circle is the magnet.
Yay.
So, today we spent an afternoon at the emergency room. They were concerned because of the size of the magnet, and because he was gagging, and throwing up. Apparently, swallowing a magnet the diameter of a quarter, and the thickness of about three quarters is a bad thing to do!
They were worried it was lodged somewhere in his throat, or in his stomach tube, or something.
Anyway, Barrett was actually pretty awesome at the hospital.
He liked getting X-rays, and he liked the "cool hospital shirt" they had him wear.
But, the magnet had made it's way into his stomach already, so now, we just wait.
That's right, we are on Poop Patrol for about a week.
Hurray.

He is amazing...


He probably will not ever see this, because he is not a big fan of modern technological advances, such as computers, cell phones, fax machines, etc.
However, I must say it anyway-

I love my Daddy.
He is truly amazing.
Love you, Dad.
Thank you for everything that you do for me, and for my little family.
Where would we be without you?

Everything I am that is good or positive or in any way beneficial,
I owe to you.
