Managed to sort topping up her phone online, have had to use DPs card which ok it's illegal & wrong as he's not here at the mo, but don't care, wouldn't let me do it with mine as I use it to top up my phone. Just had a damn good cry, try to get it out of my system, thank heavens for cuddly dogs when you need a hug and noone around. The hospital they have sent him too is usually used for very serious cases, one of the heart and lung transplant specialists, one of the best in the country, so it's good to know he's in good hands, but more worrying as I know it must be very serious to send him there.
Not a religious person but have said several prayers tonightOne day I might be more organised...........

So sorry to hear about your friend's little boy lil_me - I hope everything will turn out well - the waiting and not knowing is really rough I know, but we're all thinking of you with crossed fingers -take care
Good luck for tomorrow MichelleI'd rather be watching CSI!0 -
Just to say Lil_me fingers crossed for you on one hand, Michelle the other and my great aunt has my arms and legs crossed. I just found out she got diagnosed on Monday with leukimia, but the good news is that she was/is so fit and active that at 76 they are doing chemo (apparently only ever thought of in exceptional circumstances for anyone 60+ and not considered at 70+) and admitted her to start today. I think with poorly people, stressed people and ill relatives we all deserve a huge great big hug all round!!!0
