... with my son, bless him. He has acute tonsilitus the Dr was shocked when we went back a week after he had antibiotics for it as they hadn't worked and they'd got worse. He sent us straight to St. Georges in Tooting and they kept him in. He can't eat anything or drink so has been on IV antibiotics, fluids, steroids and painkillers and today the results of his blood test came back and it showed he also has glandular fever. Poor thing was up most of last night in pain and was sick this morning. Thankfully this evening he's managed some ice cream and soup and is having some drinks too so I'm praying that they let us home tonight. 3 nights on the ward with him and little sleep is not a good thing 
Poor little babies screaming all night and machines making noises, feel so sorry for all the other Mums here. The staff couldn't be lovelier though and there's a kitchen where we can make tea and coffee and make our own food etc. Can't fault the care here at all.
Thankfully Tim brought my laptop in for me this evening after work so after reading 3 books on my kindle I have something else to occupy myself with. I've been very good food wise and had plenty of excersise going from the 5th floor right across the hospital to the M&S coffee shop for my skinny lattes
