Weird office visits

[Ash_Rox87CMA]

so i had this little girl sent up to the office yesterday and on her card it said had a bird leg in her pocket. well first i asked her where she got this bird leg. (hoping there was not a bird outside on the playground hopping around on one leg). she said her dad gave it to her, what a relief. i said honey you shouldn't be touching things like that they are covered with germs and bacteria, she said " no me and dad rubbed hand sanitizer on it". then i told her to wash her hands and not to put her hands back in her pocket today. i went to talk to the teacher and sure enough it was a real dead bird leg the teacher confiscated from her it had talons and all. i asked the teacher how did she find out she had it, she said this little girl is a drama queen and she was supposable showing some other students the bird leg and one said "that's a ugly bird leg" and it made her upset so she went and wined to the teacher about it. this is my first year working in a health office at an elementary school, and the kids at my school do the craziest things i swear, but at least i get a good laugh every now and a again.

so i was wondering do any of you guys out there have any crazy funny stories like this one.

OMG Never saw a pocket bird leg! In the middle school setting we see a lot of weird things. I can always count on seeing at least 3-5 students the day they watch the childbirth video in health. And when the dissect bird pellets I always have few pukers and a bunch of stomachaches. But the funniest one was the kid who came to me because "I've had a stomachache since last night. I feel like I'm going to throw up." After the usual questions I asked her why she thought she had a stomachache (I'm thinking cramps, hunger, diarrhea.) Nope

"I watched Saw IV last night and I felt bad ever since." Oy~13 year olds. What are their parents thinking?

I can't say that I have ever seen animal appendages in my office. That is certainly a new one!

I can top that one unfortunatly I had a 2nd grader come to me a few days ago and she said her brother lets her watch the saw movies and Rated R movies at home. We found out because she was brought to the office for drawing x rated pictures. I don't know what parents are thinking nowadays.:flmngmd:

Could also be a sign she's being sexually abused.....might want to investigate that one.

So to add to my strange office visits for the week, I had a 3rd grader sent up here because her hands were purple. I don't mean just a little purple like deep dark violet purple, like she was squishin grapes all morning or got in a fight with barney or the purple people eater. So I asked here what was on her hands she didn't know all she said was she dropped a bottle and it broke so she tried cleaning it up and her hands turned purple. (when she was sayin this to me I was thinking the whole time where is your mother.) So I called mom, of course she only speaks spanish, luckily her older son spoke English and I asked him What she got into and he said it was the first aid antiseptic medication called Gentian violet. So we tried washing her hands a few times with little success. Then here teacher called and bless her heart she used to be a pharmacy tech :bowingpurand found out vodka and rubbing Alcohol will take it off. Since I left my vodka ant home we tried the rubbing alcohol. It worked like a charm. Within minutes I had the stu depurplefied. T.G.I.F

Have a Gr8 well deserved weekend everybody.
