I took my youngest son 13, to the ER to check for broken ribs (hockey parent here - just bruised) I'm a father of five and have had plenty of experience in the ER. I have never seen it so busy. Waiting room was filled with young people. One mother and 20 something son were checking in. He had apparently just had a previous blood clot and was now experiencing chest pain and shortness of breath with elevated heart rate. Hours later we were called in. I was expecting to be asked if my son was Vaccinated but instead was asked if we would ever approve blood transfusions! Was this a trick question? I said "Not now. Not since blood is taken from the Vaccinated." Anyone have similar experiences? This has to stop!

From a wrestling mom to a hockey dad, man those visits are the worst. I volunteered to show the video and he's still in gear, but yeah, I'll leave the room so you can interrogate my kid about if he's beat at home. 🙄
Honestly, sports injuries taught us to have more confident in when to go and when not to go for medical attention. I'm grateful the only broken bones we even dealt with were a myriad of noses!
