48 Hours

I didn't update yesterday but I'll bring everyone up to speed as best I can.

Friday

Caitlin didn't have a blood transfusion as her blood count came back up a bit, she did have antibiotics though, as her temperature concerned the doctors. She didn't eat much, & slept a bit during the day. The doctors had already said that they were going to keep her in 48 hours after her high temperature to monitor her so we had to quickly change & arrange things accordingly.

I took Alisha home that evening as they both needed clothes desperately & then dropped her back up the hospital for part one of the overnight stay.

Saturday

I went to work (wished I hadn't but thats a whole different & boring plumbing story) while the girls stayed at the hospital. Caitlin still wasn't eating much, but was colouring & playing as much as she could. By the time I got to the hospital Caitlin was having a blood transfusion. After several observations the doctors decided that the count was too low & set up her line for the transfusion.

Caitlin had made a card & a bag for my cousin Lucy so I took it over & managed to see some of the family which was lovely. Feel a bit out of the loop (feel a bit out of it in general more like) so it was nice to see them all.

I managed to then see Jessica at my mum and dads which is always awesome. With work, hospital & home it's hard to balance everything & get to spend decent time with Jess as she hasn't got a clue what's going on, & is usually pissed off to see me as I'm not around to play with her!

It was at mum and dads where Alisha rang, which leads me to...
