Currently in hospital since last night with DS who is 3. Scans show masses on his brain. Drs believe them to be tumours, likely to have come from his abdomen.

Waiting for more scans/tests etc. staff are being overly nice to us which is worrying me more (though they did refer us to social services last night as they thought DH or I had fractured DS' skull.

Feel incredibly sick. He is 3 years old. Please hold my hand.

Oh gosh. Thinking of you and hoping so much the news is positive. Please try to make sure you eat and drink at the usual times (although the adrenaline will make it very hard). It will help keep you resilient while you're waiting for news. xx
