Tuesday

Bank Holiday Monday was a good day for all the Frenchies. Chloe came in for a visit with her Grandma and Granddad and I took her off to the lovely park opposite the hospital for some serious quality time (ice cream and everything) giving Dendle and Margaret the chance to get to know their latest grandchild. A then stayed over for the night at Crawford House. We enjoyed some lovely visits to see Elizabeth together and went out for a Chinese meal! What bliss.

Elizabeth continues to do very well. She had an infection on her exomph, but they decided on a course of antibiotics and the infection seems to have come to nothing (touch wood) at present so that's good news. She is guzzling down good feeds (well, as much as you can guzzle through a nose tube), but is still very sleepy indeed. She is no longer on morphine, but apparently this can take a while to work through the system, so visitors are very lucky to see her with her eyes open.

Thanks again for the lovely messages. Unfrotunately we can't access our email here at the hospital (blocked by the IT people for some reason), so sorry that I am not emailing anyone direct!
