Short and Sweet

Posted by Deb on Saturday June 27, 2009 at 8:08 pm

This is just a very quick update for those who read this blog but don’t get my Brightkite or Facebook updates. We spent all day today hoping that Jack would be able to leave hospital this evening, and although his sats had been great all day, and he had no nebulisers after 9 a.m., they were still concerned about his temperature. We were waiting from 3 p.m. for the doctor to come and review him – she eventually arrived at about 6, and said that he sounded good but felt hot. However when they actually took his temperature, it was 37.9, and while I’m not convinced that was an accurate reading, I wasn’t going to argue if it meant I could spring him ;-)

So he’s home – with lots of meds for the next few days, but he’s home, and I am very relieved. He certainly seems to be feeling better: he’s out in the back garden now, playing with George and Freddy and their friend R, who is sleeping over with them tonight – in the tent. Jack will not be joining them!

Thanks to all those who sent messages – they have been very much appreciated. I’m going to eat and crash now – it’s amazing how sitting around all day doing nothing much can leave you so exhausted!
