  • Hi Toots:)
    The top layer of her skin is going to be chemically burned off, there is a massive risk of infection thats why she is being hospitalised!! She is only 7!! If this doesnt work then they are going to look into the possibility of tar treatment...although this is only available to over 18s.....so fingers crossed, she will also see a child psychologist to try and build up her self esteem as she is now very aware of how different she is!! She loves the attention the Drs give her and the treats:) They spoil her, her consultant always has a book or a treat for her when she comes, she currently attends the adult clinic in the city hospital in belfast (which is about an hour away from home) and she will be treated in the childrens hospital which is still in the same area....but a different hospital!!!
    The boys are going to be staying at home with my parents, sisters and friends!! They are looking forward to a goodnights sleep!!!:)
    awh the poor wee soul - I have a lump in my throat just thinking about what they are going to do to her - wee angel - we dont know how lucky we are - well it had better be successful as its a long way to 18 for her to cope with this!!!! The risk of infection as you say is the worry and i hope she hasnt any adverse reactions to the treatment. She is different but tell her she is very special different! fingers crossed the psychologist can help her - other children can be quite hurtful at times. I suppose its a bit of an adventure for the boys!
    I hope you have a laptop you can take with you to keep up with your studying and of course ...US!!!! be sure to let us kniw when you are going in so we can send our healing vibes for DD.

    Peace will be mine

    PIG PEN.there is something about the sound from agramaphone that is just so comforting...It is the perfect instrument for the quality of records...

    Its like CD's now..unless you soend a few £k on a system you don't get the full benifit from the quality that can be achived...

    But records and gramaphones just work so well together....Listening to Handels Mesiah on record is just so much better than on CD..and with a decent gramaphone to hum in an undertone perfectly compliments...

    So your Husband is not a freak just a man with impecable taste

    Thank you toots!!

    The Drs All of them including DHs ones have been very supportive of me doing this course:) They have found me stuff to use in my assignments:)...DH is lucky to have the principle psychologist of queens university as his own Dr and I have to say she has been amazing in helping me with assignments:). She helped me through a lot of issues that i had after DHs accident and encouraged me to participate in the course, I have a lot to thank her for! She was also the Dr who "fast tracked" the boys appointments with community child psychology as DS1 and 3 are both autistic and had trouble coping with the effects of their dads accident!!! But everything is Great now with the boys!!:) thankfully!
