Hand hold needed

[Whohasnickedmyvodka]

My youngest dd4 is in A&E with breathing problems suspected asthma with her dad I can't be there as my eldest dd friend who is in care has been trusted to me for the night by ss is staying so I can't leave them alone I'm sitting here waiting for news and scared she will more than likely have to stay in overnight what do I do

Passing a hand to hold 💜

Hope your DD is ok

I've had this quite a few times with ds when he was younger.

They will likely put her on a nebuliser and she will hopefully get out tonight, they don't seem keen to keep people on for long at the moment.

Its really scary but she is in the absolute best place right now

I hope your dd is ok. What a wonderful thing you’re doing for your eldest dd’s friend. I’m sure if you keep posting, there’ll be Mumsnetters to handhold for as long as you need x

They usually get on top of this sort of thing very quickly, even if the situation were much more serious (my dc1 went in and didn't respond to the usual meds, which is very rare).
It's difficult to just wait (I won't say not worry), but she should be home within hours hopefully.

Hoping you’ve had some news from the hospital OP

Hello lovely I don’t know if you remember me, it’s been a while since we spoke. I’m here and I’ve got a spare hand for you.

She’s in a good place, they will look after her. X

She is still in I'm on my way up now her breathing isn't great still

How is she now?

Hoping DD is more comfortable OP.

Hi we have been released and are home it was asthma and a viral infection she was on oxygen and nebulisers for most of the day but breathing is so much better today we have steroids and her inhaler 10 puffs every 4 hours xx

That's good news - I hope she continues to recover.
