Coincident or sympathy pains?

On Thursday we were having our normal dinner conversation:

E: "D, eat you food."

D: "No Dad, can't eat."

Me: "D, eat your dinner and you can go play with (neighbor kid)."

D: "No Momma, no dinner."

E: "D, just take a bite."

And D does take a big bite of food and starts to wail, hard. He came over to me and after spitting the food in my hand told me "My mouth, Momma." I asked him if he bit his tongue or his cheek and he stuck out his tongue.

He had a chunk hanging from it and it was bleeding profusely. Oh my poor baby!! He cried and cried and I kept blotting his tongue off with a napkin. The rest of his dinner was a Slo-melt Popsicle which I kept having to wipe blood off of. YUCK.

Last night I discovered I had two white, swollen and very hurtful buds at the same area as D's sore. Even right now they are hurting and bothering me. I didn't bite myself or remember irritating that area. But they keep rubbing against my teeth and reminding me of D's flappy chunk of tongue.

How coincidental and weird.

In other news I freaken love my bike, E got one, we got the tandom together and we are having a blast. I will post more on that later...
