my perfect littlr girl is in hospital with meningitis

[StopEatingThatMud]

And I'm really really scared.

Is anyone up to hold my hand and tell me it'll be ok?

So so glad to hear things are better. Thinking of your little B and sending positive vibes xx

That sounds like she's progressing. Keep up your energy - have you had something to eat?

I'm so glad that today has been more positive. Still thinking of you! :)

Thinking of you and little B.. .

Good to hear that today has been more positive. She is definitely a little fighter bless her.

The staff sound great and supportive. Hope you manage to get some rest now the ob's are less frequent - it's impossible to relax when they are in and out several times an hour. Hopefully you'll both sleep a bit more tonight.

Big hugs xxxx

I have been thinking of you and your dd a lot today and so glad to read that today has been more positive and that you are being well looked after.

Glad to hear things are going in the right direction. Thinking of you. xxxx

ANother lurker here...God bless you I am just SO pleased that things are looking up for your little DD. SO happy you're feeling a tiny bit better and glad you are being looked after well by the nurses too.

ALL my thoughts to you and DD and thinking of you all. This thread really touched me and I couldn't bear to post last night as I felt so upset for you and DD. But so happy things are looking up now..xxxxx

Have been looking out for an update and willing your little B on all day. So glad to read your post, it sounds very positive, even if there is still a long way to go. Keeping you both in my thoughts x

Good to hear things are improving slightly, and so glad you are getting the support you need as well as the medical care from the hospital. Best wishes x

Glad to hear little B is showing her fighting spirit and that things are improving . How lovely of the nurse to call to see how you all are. Things like that help I think, knowing the staff really do care a lot. Hope you get rest. X

So relieved that your DD is getting a little better. Look after yourself as well.

Glad to hear there has been some improvement. Shall keep the positive vibes flowing B's way, and yours. x

Glad to hear you've had a more positive day. Hope you both have a good night too.

Only just seen this but wanted to say you and little B are in my prayers and thoughts tonight. You are doing amazingly, I hope you can get some rest tonight.

Glad she has had a better day. Good staff on the ward make things do much easier x

Fingers crossed she continues to improve.

Huge hugs.

logged on just to see if there had been any news- so glad things are brighter today, hope you manage to get some rest now.

I have only read the first two or three posts but wanted to post to tell you stopeatingthatmud that my ds had bacterial meningitis at 10 days old and is now a very healthy and strapping 13 year old ( his birhday is today!) so they can and do recover from it. Wishing your little girl a full and speedy recovery xxx

Glad she's showing signs of improvement and hope you manage to get some rest. Thinking of you x

Great to hear you sounding more positve. Hope B contintues to improve.

Glad to hear also that the staff are so great. Makes all the difference.

thinking of you xx

Thinking of you and your family and sending positive thoughts to B for a speedy recovery.

little nephew had meningitis six weeks ago, horrible illness.

Thanks again for all the wishes.

Patty I hope your little nephew is well on the way to being on the mend?

DD has been a little unsettled tonight, but calpol and cuddles have helped a little, I guess its just something that's to be expected. She's rubbing her head a lot but I should think she has the headache of all headaches all things considered.

Lovely nurse number 2 has just sneaked me in a hot chocolate. Hot drinks are meant to be kept in the parents room and not brought onto the ward, to avoid the risk of burns to the children but a blind eye being turned at 4am is very much appreciated, it really is the little things that help at the moment :)
