Like Mother , Like Daughter......

The Resident bit of Glamour turned 25 yesterday and had the shittiest birthday ever...!!!

Here she is aged 2...we used to call her Pebbles..!!!


She hasn't altered much has she..??  This was in the summer when she was fit and healthy.


This is how she is normally to be found....socialising and having fun...


And this should have been her yesterday.... kicking up her heels and celebrating her 25th year


Unfortunately she is following in my footsteps and spending it, in isolation, in the Acute Care Ward of the Hospital..!!!!
She has been extremely ill with swine flu for the last 2 weeks, and has spent a very miserable and bed bound Christmas. Unfortunately she hasn't been getting any better, despite being told to  be patient..!!!!
I called round with her presents, took one look, and transported her straight to the hospital.  She is now being bombarded with fluids, antibiotics, pain relief etc. She has a serious infection somewher in her body, they just can't seem to locate where it is. Sounds familiar, doesn't it...? Staff have to don gowns, gloves and even face masks before they can attend to her. She is so poorly that she is just thankful to be there.!!! which is really saying something. Not one card or pressie has been looked at, never mind opened, and I don't think a drip dull of fluids counts as a celebratory drink, do you.
But like me, she is a fighter and will not be beaten, so I am sure she will soon be back on her feet and fighting fit. Please keep Jay in your thoughts and wish her well on her way to a speedy recovery.

I'm so sorry to hear about your beautiful daughter. I hope she finds the strength to fight off this infection soon and gets home to lots of TLC from her mum. I've no doubt she'll get better soon if sheer strength of character is anything to go by and if she's anything like her mum!!!! Wishing her well. Hugs, Marie xx
