Currently sat in Shrewsbury hospital with my girl who is hooked up to an intravenous drip to flush her liver out. We're going to be in overnight so it looks like I have an uncomfortable few hours in a chair ahead of me. My daughter seems much more herself again now but she is prone to sudden plunges into terrible sadness. She's about to restart counselling with CAMHS.

Then to cap it all, I bumped into a good friend in the corridor just by where my daughter is, and she said her mother, who I also know fairly well, has just been brought in having had a stroke and suffering with possible pneumonia.

The two of us were stood in the corridor very close to falling apart.



What a sh1te day.
Body hell Gary, how distressing. It's such a difficult situation to sort out. My niece went through a similar situation a few years back so you have my sympathies.
