Great that she's been seen so quickly. Hope it is sorted out soon too. Everything sounds calm. Can now go and have a coffee but will check in tomorrow for update. Good luck.

you know what i was thinking - if it isn't something she swallowed - it's oneof those hideous throat infections that just swell up.

I've watched too many tv dramas i think!

i was just saying to Coddy - It's normally me who deals with an energency - but this time there ws just something in her crying that made me wobble and so Dh took her up to the hospital

Gawd - how frightening. Glad she's getting sorted out at the hospital. It couldn't be one of those allergic reactions which makes your throat swell, could it??
