Tonight for Family Home Evening Ed thought we should all learn how to apply a tourniquet. He pulled the type of one that he uses when on the battlefields. Vicki cries out, "Is there blood on it?!" Ed laughs while telling her that it is a brand new one he just took out of the wrapper and i am laughing telling her that those are NOT taken off until the injured person arrives at the medical facility, that Dad would never have a used one on him. She let out a huge sigh of relief and than laughed at how dumb that would be to take it before they loaded up the wounded on the med evac. The kids had fun practicing on each other. Ryan was scared Vicki was going to hurt him and was begging to not have Vicki eb the one to practice on him. These kids are sooo funny. But, Ed would tell them the injury and than they would apply the tourniquet where it needed to go. He also showed them how they could use other things for a tourniquet. It was a fun FHE with lots of laughter and some learning involved.....
