Sunday, 27 September 2009 - Day +48

Continuing the week from hell, after Drew had gone to sleep last night I fell ill with a gastro bug, apart from feeling wretched I had to leave Drew alone and was driven down to Ronnie Macs by security. Nurse Katie took good care of him, we'll forgive her being a Jets supporter. There is a gastro bug on the ward and several of the nurses have fallen ill too, so the whole ward has been shut, no new patients, infectious patients moved out and no visitors. They made an exception in Drew's case and Daddy could go in today and his Uncle is sleeping there tonight. I'm not allowed to go back for 48 hours. Drew was quite fractious today, he didn't want to have a shower, nor get weighed in the evening - he is understandably well and truly over it, which should make tomorrow's cannula insertion interesting plus he has to have another NPA (snot sucking as he says). Temperature still in the high 38s, haven't been game to ask his blood count.
