When I was little I went to get one of the shots that little kids get, some vaccination or something. I think they put it in my leg or arm. I remember this story basically because it has been retold to me. The doctor who was administering the shot said, “ok, close your eyes and count to 10.”
I did as instructed and at about 3 I felt the sharp jab of the needle and I started to cry. I cried and I counted, “1, 2, 3… 9, 10.” I was sobbing.
The doctor told my mom, “wow, I’ve never had a kid who actually made it all the way to 10." See I’m tough!
You were really pretty amazing! Ouch!
