A Trip to the Emergency Room By Jennifer Kenny

---

¹     Kristy and her mother were in their car headed to the store. While waiting at a red light, a car slammed into them from behind. Kristy and her mom were hurt. A witness called 911 and asked for an ambulance.
 
²     Jack's grandmother was getting older. One day while getting out of bed, his grandmother tripped. She knew she had broken something - probably her hip. Jack's mother came running. She decided she better not move her. She called for an ambulance instead.
 
³     Keith woke up in the middle of the night. He was experiencing a severe asthma attack. When the medicine did not improve his breathing, Keith's mother called the doctor. He told Keith's mother to get Keith to the hospital right away.
 
⁴     Julie and John were running through the house, doing exactly what they weren't supposed to do. Suddenly, Julie fell over a toy. She hit her head on the corner of the living room table. Her head had a pretty good sized cut now. She was bleeding. Her mother and father picked Julie up, and the family headed to the hospital, thinking Julie might need stitches.
