    Good morning folks.

    Its a lovely sunny day today so far.

    Welll we had drama's here last night. OH was brought home by ambulance. He had collapsed in the street about 5 minutes from home, he landed on his face unfortunately. Some passers by called an ambulance by which time he had woken up and refused to go to hospital so the ambulance brought him home.

    The paramedic said he had heat stroke and dehydration and his temperature was high They had put a couple of dressings on his face but he had a bad cut on the bridge of his nose, we are not sure if its broken, but the paramedic said they don't do anything for broken noses anyway.

    So all last night we had to follow instructions of keeping him cool, plenty of fluids, and then later cleaning all his cuts and re-dressing the 2 worst ones.

    Well he feels a bit better today, is now sat in a chair and resting. Honestly men, they will be the death of us scaring me like that.

    So hope everyone has a good day today.

    Take care and keep drinking fluids folks.

    CWxx

    EVEning everyone,

    I stilll have not caught up so please forgive me :o

    DD3's mouth is horribly infected - well the wound is - she is very sore (as is her nose now too) so Dr has extended antibiotics, have to stick with paracetamol & ibuprofen (would not give me anything stronger or increase in dosage)

    Have been trying all sorts of foods, smoothies etc she is still hungry bless her.

    I still feel sick to the pit of my stomach when I look at her and think what she has to go through (I pray every night that she will not, the worst that will happen will be a brace hey they are trendy now :cool: ) I cannot sleep and have a permanent headache :(

    I can't help but think that my post's are maybe coming across a bit "dramatic" if they are then apologies but 14 months ago today I lost my beautiful & beloved DD1 to a very brief illness, since then I panic, worry every time my children are away from me - yes even at school - because I just know something else will happen and low and behold look what has happened. I don't think my heart can take much more to be honest.

    Anyway, I did not come on here to post any of the ^^^^^ it has just found it's way out I guess.........

    FV ((((hugs)))) to you and your little girl.

    How awful that her mouth is infected but I am sure the antibiotics will kick in slowly and deal with it. All you can do is give her lots of liquidised type foods and lots to drink. Ask the doctor for some of those drinks that have extra calories and vitamins in.

    I am so sorry you lost a child, I think thats every mums worst nightmare. My son got meningitis when he was 5and I remember the fear I felt, he was fine luckily, no lasting damage as spotted very quickly and it wasn't the worst type of meningitis.

    Please don't worry about telling your friends on here about your fears or worries, everyone will send you lots of (((hugs))) as most of us have children, big or small they are still our children.

    Try and look after yourself, so you don't get too tired or stressed hun.

    Sending you lots of (((hugs)))

    Blue they drew 1-1 but they might as well have lost although they should have had a penalty apparently DH wasn't happy the Senagal team made some bad tackles another ref would have sent them off:eek: DH's opinion not that he is biased:D:rotfl:
