    Well it's been an eventful couple of weeks. I've saved about £85 into Plum.

    DH started with what we thought was a UTI, collapsed outside work and had to be carted off in an ambulance on 23rd. 6 hours working our way through A&E and treatment before being sent home. I worked from home all week while he barely moved off the sofa and slept a lot after hitting his head. He'd just started to come back to himself on Thursday for his birthday (well the opening of his cards) and moreso on Friday and on Saturday it became apparent the infection had gone rogue, so we ended up back in A&E, this time for 10 hours overnight, before he was transferred over another hospital and I went home. He was in there till Tuesday, but we've had to go back every day for IV antibiotics and various other GP surgeries/hubs for dressings. So as you can imagine I've spent about 40 quid on hospital parking fees, either on site or nearby! So although we've got to go for dressings tomorrow and I've got an eye test on Sunday, I intend to do as little as possible this weekend!!!
