On Halloween, Margaret rode the ferris wheel that someone had built up the street. She got her hair tangled in it and it took a while to stop it and extricate her. In the mean time, an extremely large amount of hair was ripped from her head. After that, she continued on and trick-or-treated a bit more. When she got home, she was hurting and pretty much went to bed. We didn’t really know how bad it was until the next day. Elizabeth gingerly combed it out and ended up with a huge pile of hair. Luckily, because she has so much hair, the missing patch – even though it is rather large – is not really noticeable. Margaret is one tough little kid.
Warning, the click-through is somewhat gruesome. I feel so sorry for Margaret, but she is doing just fine. I think that she is more embarrassed by the whole thing than anything.
