Poorly daughter

thankyou all for your thoughts.

I have to book yet another day off work tomorrow.

I've used up loads of my holiday recently for poorly folks & poorly animals.

Glad to hear someone is listening to you at last Kelly. Hope poor Ashleigh gets the treatment she needs. Take care, all of you!

Hopefully this is the beginning of diagnosis and treatment. It's so good that the doctor listened and cared. I hope the ENT people can help your poor Ashleigh.

Hurrah - let's hope this sorts it out now.

PS - your work/holiday; can you negotiate with your work to either take unpaid leave (they might like that!), borrow leave from next year or work extra hours per week to make up? You'll need some time off after all your recent travails and if you don't get it there's a chance you'll be forced to take time off because you'll be sick!

Hope you can get your daughter well with the help of the ENT people now you have had some decent care...

Hope you get good treatment again at ENT today. Poor lass, none of you need all this stress when you're not well.

I could take some unpaid leave, but couldn't afford to. But the new holidays has just started & I still have a bit from last year too, so I'm ok, but don't want to use it all up. I am fortunate enough to be able to work at home sometimes, so that is what I shall do tomorrow.

--------------------------------------------------------

We have been to ENT, very helpful, very thorough & quite a charming consultant too! We saw 2 consultants, they have advised they think there is a problem from her operation last year & that we go back to the specialists at the childrens hospital to see the consultant that did her operation. The male consultant from ENT today contacted Ashleighs sugeon from the childrens hospital whilst we were there & requested an urgent appointment. They will call me back with a date. The ENT specialists said they are only trained in ENT & not the type of surgery that Ashleigh had, so they felt it really was best we go to see the people who know best in that area.

At last someone sensible, someone who has listened and is willing to do somethig to sort this out.

You're getting somewhere at last!

I hope Ashleigh doesn't have to wait too long for the appointment at the Children's Hospital ..........now why couldn't your doctor have done that for her in the first place!

Hope all goes well..

Hope that appointment comes along really quickly and they get it all sorted out. Poor girl''s suffered enough already.
