Morning everyone
Just an update on little one for you all ...she's now starting her third week in hospital Its such a
shame as she was so excited for her summer holidays and we had lots planned.
Things got more complicated at the end of last week and she ended up having an operation on Friday to fit a picc line in for her to be fed directly into a vein next to her heart. She is on a  TPN feed which means total parenteral nutrition..I had to do a lot of googling! She is still feeling no better in herself and is very quiet and tired.
She will stay in hospital on this for about another week and then they'll try her on feeds through her tube in her tummy again to see if it makes her sick. DD is hoping her tummy will start working properly again as it would be very complicated for her to come home being fed through the picc line. There's an excellent explanation of it on GOSH website,if anyone would like a better explanation.
I'm in a very warm Nuremburg with eldest DD....it's lovely spending time with her but little one and her mummy are constantly on my mind. We have been to a love!y little town called Regensburg today...It was very pretty. ...and very warm....gorgeous cakes!
Gers you're right about Frankfurt airport....I had to walk through to the train. station...I seemed to walk miles! My train was cancelled so I had to get one 90 .minutes later which was a pain. I was still with DD by about 7.30 pm, she met me at the station and then her apartment is only a 5 minute walk away.
 Right better get moving...hope everyone has a good day today x
