When my son was little I was washing his dark hair and didn't realize that he had a tick in his hair. I thought it was gum so I keep rubbing it. Pretty soon there was alot of blood dripping down from the top of his head. I looked and found the tick but it was too late, I had already broken the body off of the darn tick. Since it had been there for 2 days it had started to suck blood!!!!
We ended up having to take him to the emergency room since its head was still attached.
I remember his three year old sister crying because she thought her brother was going to die since there was so much blood.
