Toddlers are Quackers

While playing in our PapPap's house, my second sister got her ear slammed in a door. She had to get stitches.
My third sister shoved a broom between my oldest sister's legs while playing witch. A chunk of wood got into her leg. My oldest sister had to have a part of her leg cut out. She couldn't bathe for about two weeks.
Babies went down the stairs in walkers. I have a scar on my lip from slamming my face on the tray when my father caught me before I got seriously hurt. My little brother had several bloody privates from his falls.
Second sister had many surgeries for chronic nosebleeds. I fractured my skull and burnt my back (second degree, but I was so skinny it was still serious) a month apart. We had the usual breaks and sprains from falling out of trees, sports injuries, etc.
Seven children in under 10 years kept my mother busy at the hospital.
 
How does one slam their ear in a door? And how did you burn your back? (I've given myself a rug burn under my nose, so I know weird things happen.)
My oldest brother pulled the door shut as my second sister was chasing him and the oldest sister. She just happened to move the right way.
I pulled a coffee pot down on myself. Always keep cords out of reach!!!!
 
Haha! Before leaving Massachusetts, my mother pulled my arm out of the socket. I asked her to tie my shoe, and put my foot on her lap. I was sitting on the floor, and she was in a black recliner. She was also about eight months pregnant. She grabbed my arm, and pulled. She was trying to get me into her lap.
I also swallowed way too many buttons and coins. Sadly, all of my accidents were with my parents close by. Usually my mother.
Then there was the time she almost chopped my hand off...
