I realised it was serious, but did wonder if he had turned green around the gills. :smt002

Me too, i was'nt sure, but upon reading the symptoms i noticed that frozen carbs was missing which made me think it must be serious. :smt009


Hope he makes a full and speedy recovery.

Now the hospital are messing Rose about with the scan appointment - it's the NHS, are we surprised?

And my other daughter Lucy out in the Alps has broken her wrist! Not on the mountain - on her way home from the pub!

Elliot had his heart scan today in Southampton and we're all very relieved, it shows no sign of damage to heart or arteries! He has to go back for another scan once the illness has completely gone just to make sure.

Phew!

am very pleased for your news :)


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

Thanks all, he seems to be pretty much ok now! Children are amazing - all that worry he put us through! Will still be good when he has the 2nd scan though.
