Heartfelt

A bit of a drama today. An attempt to book a regular doctor’s appointment escalated over 36 hours to Josh being taken to hospital in an ambulance. A combination of his medical history, having just been vaccinated with the AstraZeneca jab, and a symptom of ‘chest pain’ hit a lot of red flags. He’s now home and appears fine but the realisation I couldn’t go up to the hospital when the paramedics said they were taking him in reminded me of how awful it has been for so many families whose loved ones have been alone in hospital.

The paramedics and hospital staff were brilliant.

In other news yesterday morning there was a reported attempted dog theft where I walk Juno every day. Later in the day a young woman (who was at school with my boys) reported being grabbed and groped by a man while walking along the main road by our house. Both very worrying incidents.
