Sleep elusive.

It wasn't elusive till child phoned home at midnight. It has been elusive since.

Giving it another go.

Morning denizens

Overcast, but I reckon the sun will clear that away before too long now it's up

Twenty past ten?

Are you feeling ok?

Much better for a half-decent kip, thanks

Sleep elusive.

Crisis, or thoughtlessness?

Crisis, or thoughtlessness?

Well, sort of neither. He'd been at the docs yesterday afternoon - over the last three weeks he's started having migraine type headaches whenever he, er, something that I felt was maybe TMI to tell his mother!

For some reason the GP decided he might be having a intracranial bleed, and packed him off to the hospital for a CT scan. After three and a half hours of waiting, the A&E doc saw him, told not to be daft and to take paracetamol.

Not sure what led the GP to that conclusion in the first place.

Anyway, he phoned to let me know!

Daft thing is that he'd gone to the doc a week ago with very swollen glands under his armpits - visible - they look like golf balls, and he's had them about 6 weeks. Not painful. Doc then wasn't interested in the headaches, but was very concerned about the glands, ran bloods, and told him to come back in a week (yesterday). Bloods were clear, but the doc yesterday (a different GP - our local surgery is a mess at the moment!) wasn't interested in the glands and was concerned about the headaches. Having googled the glands (the way you do), I'd really like them to be making sure they know what the problem is!

But apart from that, he's a picture of health.

Morning all

Mask and snorkle needed for the ride in this morning.

It was somewhat damp.

My feet still are.
