Weekly Winners is here again. Hosted by Lotus over at Sarcastic Mom.
Last week was a bust for me so I have enjoyed going through the fortnight’s photos and picking out some faves.
Hope you like them too…
In hospital, you can build tall towers…
have your spleen palpated,
your brother can pretend to visit (secretly he just wants to play […]
Three day blues…
Filed in Daily life, blah blah blah, June 28, 2008, 6:44 pmThe sun shone so brightly today.
In the Winter sunshine the voices of the children’s choir lifted into the blue sky.
So blue and clear that I felt I could whisper my thoughts upwards and they would evaporate into organza swirls of white, consumed by the vastness of the day.
I am tired today and I can’t seem […]

* This month’s theme is to talk about a person who has helped us in some special way. There are many people who have helped us. I am very critical of the medical profession, I know that. I have many trust issues with doctors. I’ve chosen to thank Ivy’s paediatrician because, even though […]

My Lily.
My life is amazing with you in it.
You are unique, beautiful and special.
I love you, sweet girl.

Filed in celebrations!, June 25, 2008, 3:10 pmHi,
To anyone out there, who hasn’t run away (and I know alot of you have) thanks for sticking by us, thanks for reading still and taking the time to comment, even though you don’t know what to say. I know it’s all down in the dumps, illness rants and raves and you’re all sick of hearing […]
Just stuff and nonsense.
Filed in Health, illness, doctor related posts, June 23, 2008, 5:39 pmToday we were told (quite by accident) that the doctor does not want us to leave until Thursday. It would have been nice to hear that from the paediatrician or even the staff specialist.
But No.
Thursday is Lily’s 10th birthday.
And I’ll be in here.
I think I have just been made to do something I don’t want to […]
Irony.
Filed in Health, illness, Ivy - girl, hospital, sarcasm becomes no one, June 22, 2008, 3:21 pmIrony is;
when you discover that your daughter has mycoplasma pneumonia and the hospital doctor tells you the best oral antibiotic to treat it is the very same long term antibiotic (Erythromycin) that your paediatrician only ceased a fortnight ago, in favour of Keflex.
Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!
So, here we sit on three different IV antibiotics, waiting for her lungs to come […]

Noah (pretending not to hear): I love you too, Ivy! Love you too.
Ivy: You spewed, I said, you spee - you - ed!
Noah: I not pooed Ivy.

Mummy: “No, you stay in your bed.”

Wheezy, wheezy…
Filed in Health, illness, The Boy, hospital, June 17, 2008, 10:52 pmNot to be outdone by his sister’s recent hospitalisations, Noah decided to drop his bundle today and with oxygen sats in the high 80’s earned himself a trip to the hospital in an ambulance.
Abandoned by our paediatrician, once more, we hospital hopped from the local, rural ER to our secondary in our trusty ‘am blue […]
