Fall, 1999
Dear Mrs. Huffman,

Hi my name is Jennifer. I am going to tell about the time when I had stitches. It all started on a warm day around 5:00 P.M. I was riding my new bike and my brother was roller blading. His friend Ian was riding his bike.

I was about five years old. I was saying to Ian, "I'll beat you to my house," and I was not paying any attention, and all of a sudden I turned around and I ran into a pick-up truck. It hurt so bad. Then Ian ran and got his mom. My brother went to get my mom and they drove me to the hospital.

When I got at the hospital they wheeled me around in a bed and I had to get a shot in the side of my eye and it hurt a lot. I was at the hospital for about 4 hours and I got three stitches.

Sincerely,
Jennifer
