Shortest trip to the ER

So Ellis had his first trip to the ER today. About a week ago, Ellis ate a toy(I think). Anyway, long story short on the toy, if he did not pass it (and that terminology is very benign, it does not indicate that I had to sift through poop for a week) that they were going to do Xrays. Forward to me taking him to the hospital today. So the xray tech told me to walk away from the table because they were going to do the xray and SHE walked away from the table and SPLAT, Ellis fell off the table and landed on the floor on his back. I do not lie when I say it was the worst sound I have ever heard in my whole life. He immediately started screaming. My heart bled for him. We ended in the ER (on their bill) and had him checked out. He is supposedly fine, I have to keep an eye on him (including waking him up every two hours tonight) to make sure he does not have a concussion. It was horrible. I was in the ER/hospital for hours today! I guess it is the safest place to fall if you are going to!
