pretty quiet week so far. incidentally, next week is election week in most of the US, so don't forget to vote on November 7th (and vote early if you can--my ballot just has to be dropped off)

I’ve experienced exactly the same with my son. He was in hospital for about two weeks but is now absolutely fine.

Really scary and distressing time, I still get wobbly when thinking about it… but the doctors and nurses will look after him.

I hope you’re doing okay. At least as okay as you can be. Don’t forget to eat and sleep yourself.

Wow, two weeks? I should count myself lucky. We're looking at three full days, four nights in the PICU plus the half a day spent in the ER.

Eating, I've got no appetite. Plus he's not allowed to eat or drink so I feel like I can't do it in front of him. A neighbor brought soup in a thermos that I can take swigs of throughout the day. Sleep at least I'm keeping up with, though I'm exhausted and distracted all the time.

Thanks for your kind words.
