Medical Emergency!

Just a quick post today, before I head to the hospital, yes, you read right! My 10 year old daughter came back from the guides last night complaining of a sore stomach and feeling sick, and she had sickness and diahorrea all through the night. So, then she fainted and I decided to get a doctor out. The doctor said to keep an eye on her, and see how she was in the morning, but half-an-hour later she was back in the toilet and started drifting in and out of consciousness. So, I got an ambulance out, and her and the wife went off to the hospital.

The wife has phoned to say the doctors think it's just a bad gastric infection, and she'll be staying in today, so I'll head in later and see how she's doing. To be honest I'm feeling a bit squeamish myself, and have all night, but I don't know if it's what she has, or just an involuntary reaction to it. Anyhow, when your kids are ill, you just can't take any chances, especially as the Paramedics were thinking it could be appenicitis.
