Ahhh, the Good [dangerous] Old Days !!

Last year my son was riding without a helmet, hit something like a rock or whatever it was and fell - bonking his unhelmeted head on the curb. He freaked out and did this weird thing where his body got all still and he couldn't move his hands. He's done this before when he had an asmtha attack and freaked out. I was able to calm him down then... but this time my husband saw him and he freaked out and called 911 and he ended up going by ambulance to the hospital.

Now he has to wear his helmet. I can't afford for him not too. (let alone the whole health part of it.)

p.s. If anyone knows what that reaction is called - I would love to know. The paramedic told me in the ambulence but I coudln't write it down and promptly forgot. I would be nice to be able to look it up though.
