My earliest memory

My earliest memory is from when i was about one year old. I was at my neighbor's house and i stood up on a stool that i did not know was broken. It only had three legs instead of four. When I stood up on the stool, I fell over, bit my tongue in half, knocked my tooth out, got blood all over thier white carpet, and started to bawl my head off. My mom came over and drove me to the hospital. the last thing that i remember is falling asleep in the back of the car on the way there, but my mom says that I was awake for the whole time. When we got to the doctor's office, they would not let us go into the ER, but instead gave us a 15 minute long lecture about why they never send tongue injuries to the ER before they even looked at my tongue. After they actually looked at my tongue, they told me I had to go to theh ER. I ended up getting stitches, but they kept falling out, so I had to get them replaced a couple of times. I still have a scar on my tongue to this day.
