He is nearly three but has SN so developmentally he is still like an 18 month old. He is having a hyperspadias repair and both his undescended testicles brought down.
He doesn't cope well with stress, unusual places and obviously pain. He is impossible to comfort in soem situations and has been know to cry for hours, despite my very best efforts.
We are going to Southampton General. I just feel I need to warn them. His notes will show he has SN but I want to explain the way he is a little. I'm hoping for a side room because he will be very disruptive in a ward over night. However, I don't want the nurses to think I'm using it as an excuse to get a side room.
Also, I know they are busy and stressed. I wonder if they will have the time to lsten and even if the ame nurses will be on duty.
Would be interested in your views.
