Huge hugs hun!!! You know that DS2 has cerebral palsy affecting his right side. At 8 months it was diagnosed and first appeared to be just his arm. It's not the end of the world but it does feel like someone has just broken your knees and told you to run!

The good thing is that they have picked it up now, that makes all the difference. They can get a physio routine sorted out to kick start all those little neurones into covering the area of damage, sooner that starts the better. All I can advise is lots of physio, lots of stimulation, lots of sensory stimulation in the arm and he will be fine.

The first 3 years will be hard, nobody knows what is going to happen and all you want is to know what the future holds. You can only be told wait and see so many times before you go mad. But, they don't know, you can only do your best, which you will because you are amazing.

Thanks huni. I know it isnt the end of the world, just feels crappy

Yes Glam, it stops them overheating, may buy a spare cover but gonna see how I go.

Service was excellent too!

OK, so it comes with a removable washable cover? (Doesn't say that but will email seller)

Seems very good and was the exact price I thought - Just need to wait for my echeque to cash from my cashback and I'll get it!!

Grr - heartburn!! Where is my ice-cream?!!!!!

MM - you've got every right to be scared and upset. You know we are here if you need us xxxx

Aw MM, I don't know what to say. It's ok for you to feel scared - at least you have here to vent/scream whatever...
At the min concentrate on getting Dylan home, everything else that will follow will slot into place eventually.
BIG HUGS!!!

Aw, that's nothing! I'd probably be near the bottom of a bottle of [STRIKE] whiskey [/STRIKE] wine by now. You feel bad now but bet you felt good at the time.

Just don't make a habit of it!!!!
