    Nathans just surfaced with very red cheeks, i've given him paracetamol, he said his throat, chest, ribs, stomache hurt. So i think i need to call the dr out.

    well i've called the drs the receptionist said they don't normally do housecalls on children!!! i have to take him to the surgery!!! told her the child can hardly stand up, hes nearly as tall as me a good weight, how am i supposed to get him to the surgery? plus i don't drive.

    she said she will put him down for a house call, but the dr will most probably call me

    Morning all,

    Big hugs Bun, that is so sad xx

    Claire, hope Nathan is OK.

    Was off sick yesterday with pounding headache, runny nose etc, not sure if it's cold or hayfever, I had some Piriton last night which seemed to help but it made me drowsy and I'm still a bit out of it lol!

    Same her Squizz but I think mine is definitely a steaming cold. Woke up every 20mins or so during the night with a streaming nose and really thirsty:( Tucked up in bed with laptop in a lovely quiet house a the moment though.

    Bunny - So sad to hear about your friends little boy, I cant even bare to let my mind wander to imagine the pain and grief they must have.

    Hugs to those that need them (including me today:D)
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    well the dr has just phoned,i have to take nathan to the surgery at 12.

    told him that i don't drive he said if he had to go to hospital how would i get him there, my answer was ring an ambulance. then he asked how i managed to get to the shops for shopping answer walk. he asked if there was anyone who could bring me up, answer no, so i was told i'd have to get a taxi, (which is going to cost me £6 each way) as they do not see children at home, they need to be seen at the drs surgery.

    he thinks nathan might have tonsilitis and need antibiotics
