Celeste was climbing up this rolling ladder/staircase in the gym there with her cousin. It's one of those things they use to put up volleyball nets or have refs stand on during volleyball games. Anyhow, when they were on the top and both standing on the same side of it, it fell. Celeste took the brunt of it. There was a decent amount of blood. Enough to make me feel scared. It was coming from her mouth. She also complained of her foot hurting.
It looked pretty scary of a scene, but I tried to stay cool and calm so she didn't totally panic, which she pretty much did anyhow. She was given a priesthood blessing by Steve and his brothers. Then we took her to the hospital where she got cleaned up and well cared for.
They were concerned with the blood and facial swelling, that maybe she had broken a bone/s in her face or head. So they had her get a CAT scan.
Which checked out ok thankfully!!! The blood was just from a very bad cut in her mouth. But they did an Xray on her foot and found 2 broken bones. It was a heck of a night. She's still in a cast today. But we're hoping she'll be out of it in about a week. We were grateful that the damage was only a broken foot.

Oh my gosh!!! Poor Celeste...poor you seeing Celeste like that. So scary!
Tell Celeste that Sammie is STILL praying for her -- EVERY prayer, even over breakfast. That was a scary experience, and we're so glad she's alright!
