How often were you taken to the ER when you were growing up?

I had to get stitches once, but my folks took me to a regular doctor who came in on his day off, so I guess I’ve never been to the ER as a child.

My sister stepped on a broken milk bottle with her bare feet. She went to the ER.
Same sister got the tip of her pinky snapped off in the hinge side of a pneumatic screen door. She went to the ER.
Same sister broke her arm on her POW bracelett. I don’t know if she went to the ER for that, though.

My other sister, who is an animal lover, caught a little field mouse with her bare hands and carried it home. It was biting and biting her hand, but she just kept walking with it cupped in her hand, and crying because it hurt. She had to get rabies shots.
She also got the mumps but I don’t think they went to the doctor.
