Hospital

Well, we certainly have seen our share of sickness these last couple months....we had been doing so well to escape so much of it. But some how some where we managed to catch the bugs. Narah started the ball rolling with her Scarlet Fever, then Mummy came down with the Strep Throat...not too much longer and the kids all had their runny noses and coughs (this all seemed to be quite mild) however, poor little Mylo coped the worst and ended up getting worse not better and I made the call to take him in to emergency - he was not feeding well and had a very swollen, purple, sore looking eye - on top of his fevers and lethargy.

Mylo was admitted and had numerous tests done to try and find what was the problem - he was put on a drip and given antibiotics -and thankfully these seemed to do the job after 3 days and 3 nights he was allowed to come home. I certainly was happy about this!! Sleeping in hospital with a sick baby is certainly NO HOLIDAY!!

We have a wonderful family who were so very helpful and supportive and made things so much easier for us and we are so very thankful to them all.

I really feel for all those families who have really sick little ones, constantly in and out of hospital. It is so very hard and emotionally draining.
