Friday 24th June

We were kind of under the impression that we might still be able to bring Ben home today if we can arrange for his iv antibiotics to be administered. I have spoken to the district nurses and they are happy to do this for Ben. However changing the canula may be a problem - (not a problem I can get this sorted :)

We discussed this with Fran - one of Bens trauma surgeons and thats a definate no no no no no no no no :(  and not an option  She said if there are complications he needs to be here so they can look after him. Ok so thats that then :(

Ben has been booked into Barts on Tuesday week for has his catheters to be changed. Until then his infection needs to be managed.

Lovely visit from Ruth Hill today - you said some good things - thank you -  Oops we forgot to take a piccy :(      

Lovely one to one with aunty Tina  (thats a first I think!)

Lovely visit with Sam and Sam before their trip to Madrid

Lovely visit with Rachel before her holiday and more cup cakes :)

Ben very sleepy after the past two very stressful days

Stab night came early!!!!!!!!! This morning there were 3 fully armed officers guarding a critically ill patient on our ward. They were protecting him as they were expecting the killer to come back and finish the job! This hospital is unbeleivable - nothing like Holby lol

There are four guys in our room -  our Ben,  lovely Peter who has suffered a really horrific accident and lost both his legs, then a young guy who has been attacked with a machete half his arm missing and a split open stomach - nice!  lastly another young lad who have been stabbed 14 times. ummmmmmmmmm gang warfare!

Good night darling boy, sleep tight

Mumma, Dad and Sambo
