And I'm really really scared.

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

Bless you both. The care you get in picu is generally amazing. So glad you got some sleep, I always slept moch better when ds was in picu, knowing they have a dedicated nurse makes so much difference.

I am hoping for you that B is over the worst now and makes a full, uneventful recovery xx

Still thinking of you. Isn't the NHS amazing.

hellymelly · 15/06/2012 11:40

Oh what a terrible and terrifying time you are all having. Good you are in a place equipped to give the best possible care to B, really hope today is a better day and that things improve from now on.

TiaMariaandDietCoke · 15/06/2012 11:46

(hugs) Mud - thinking about you and B - hope her recovery is swift and uneventful. I hope you don't mind me praying for you both xx

Thanks for the update Mud and hopefully things may start to look up a little now that she has been transferred (((hugs))) x

Just adding my best wishes, sounds like you're in the best place for B now. Hope things improve today x

BCBG · 15/06/2012 12:11

Praying hard here too. My DS survived it at 9 months old (twenty years ago Shock) so it can be done x

SurvivalOfTheUnfittest · 15/06/2012 12:15

Only just seen your thread and couldn't leave without passing on all best wishes for B's recovery. At least you are in the best place now to help her.

Madsometimes · 15/06/2012 12:18

I'm pleased that B is getting the very best of care, and that you now have your dh with you. Sending lots of prayers for you all.

dikkertjedap · 15/06/2012 12:35

O Mud both you and B are having such a rough time. I hope that B is on the up now.

Good that she has been transferred and has had the blood transfusion. How scary it must have been for you to watch her during such a long fit.

Does your husband have to work this weekend or can he now stay with you and B for a bit.

Sending you lots of love, strength and best wishes. xxx

TheHouseOnTheCorner · 15/06/2012 12:52

Oh I'm happy to hear your update! I know she's still in a bad way but she's with you and in a great hospital...it sounds like she's getting the very best! I hope today is a "good" one.

Thinking of her daily like so many others. xxx

McFarts · 15/06/2012 12:55

Oh goodness me Sad what a tough time, have everything crossed that she turns a corner very soon xx

GiantUnderCrackers · 15/06/2012 13:04

Thinking of you. Your daughter is in the best place possible and I hope she gets better very quickly x

lazarusb · 15/06/2012 13:11

Sending you good thoughts. Glad you got some sleep last night, even in these circumstances.

I love the sound of your dd's character. She sounds like a fighter, very feisty Smile She'll soon have you running around after her again!

Jnice · 15/06/2012 13:17

Still here and thinking of you and little B x

So glad you are receiving the very best care and can now share the burden with your dp and get some proper rest.

MrsEdinburgh · 15/06/2012 14:00
