Hospital

My youngest son is in hospital.

What we thought was mumps turned out not to be mumps. My partner took him up to the doctors after we managed to get an appointment in the afternoon. The doctor though he could have an infection but advised us to take hi to hospital to get him checked out.

It was a bit of a challenge getting him to hospital as the public transport has been canceled due to the weather (My friends husband took twelve hours to get home) but thankfully one of my partners cousin was able to take them in. They did some tests and checked him over and they think that there could be a problem with his tonsils. They have said that he should stay in until the swelling has gone down. That means that he could be in hospital for the minimum of two days.

I think I will be the one spending tomorrow night in the hospital, so I had better get a bag ready so that I have something to do once he falls asleep at night.
