Re: Young Lad with Scissors in His Face(dont Worry Theres a Happy Ending)
I found the story! He's lucky he can still smile! Boy, 4, accidentally impales his face on scissors By Mail Foreign Service UPDATED: 08:23 EST, 24 March 2010 A four-year-old boy is recovering after accidentally falling over and impaling his face on a pair of scissors. Xiao Yu was helping his parents cut sticky tape for fixing Chinese festival scrolls to the door of the family home in Qinglong, Qinghuangdao. But he slipped and, to the horror of his mother and father, landed on a large pair of scissors. Both blades narrowly missed his left and eye and entered his face next to his nose, penetrating seven centimetres into his head. After ten hours of being transferred from hospital to hospital, Xiao was finally admitted to Xiehe hospital in Beijing where he was treated by specialists. Doctors found the blades had pierced through the boy's upper jaw and were pointing to the inside of his skull at a dangerous angle. After a group discussion they decided to remove the scissors surgically. Dr Zhao Jizhi and his team cut an opening inside Xiao's mouth to make the blades visible, and then surgically removed the scissors before sewing up the wounds. Following eight days of recovery, the swelling has gone down and no facial nerve damage or infections were found. Amazingly, Xiao can already smile again.
