nevins Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Starts off with Sam having the flu, so off we go to the doctors only to be given the wrong tablets, as Sam has bad asthma. So on comes Thursday Sam is getting worse by the the hour. 11pm I am chasing a ambulance down to the hospital as sam has stopped breathing. Now I do not sleep as it is but I can truly say I am beyond exhausted physically and mentally. I have only just got home from the hospital 10 mins before logging on, but not for long as I am back down the hospital after a breather. This is not the crap part though, NO!, The crap part is knowing that I am sat here unable to do anything to help Sam after being told that she has a huge shadow on her lungs. By all accounts they can not decide if its just a infection or a clot on the lungs. Except they are saying its nothing to worry about, even though they are running round like idiots giving her treatments, as she can not breathe. Nothing to worry about is it Doc, Can you tell me why you have injected 3 huge needles into her stomach, behind the rib cage and angled up, and not to forget that when I asked you simply said its to "hopefully" break down the clot. Sorry about the rant but my head is shot and needed to vent some pressure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Wow unbelievable. I wondered why I hadn't seen you 2 about last night. I had a similar thing happen back in November, didn't get to quite that level though. Scary as hell not being able to breathe, had shadows showing on x-rays etc as well. Wish her all the best from me bud! Don't forget the grapes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merckx Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 I'm sure they wouldn't say it's nothing to worry about if they had any doubts. Let us know how she gets on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benyon Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Wow:blink: I hope shes fine and has a fast recovery, Sounds very worrying. I had a similar problem but that was through an injury during training a few years back. Try and sleep whenever you get the chance too nev because you cant look after someone else without looking after yourself first. Any Idea when she can leave?

Snooze Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 If it helps, my money is on a viral chest infection. My son (now 4 weeks old) caught it pretty much when he was born - is just now recovering from it. When he was in hospital, they had numerous other identical cases too. My Dad (over in the west country) has had a very similar viral chest infection for the last 3 weeks. It seems to be everywhere these last few weeks.

pistonbroke Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Blimey, thats not good mate. Don't forget to look after yourself while you're watching out for Sam, try to sleep and eat properly (its easy to forget when you're full of nothing but worry). Fingers crossed she gets well soon matey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nevins Posted February 26, 2010 Author Share Posted February 26, 2010 Cheers guys, stressful is not the word for it. I have just got back in from the hospital and its killing me seeing her with all the tubes and that going into her, she can't speak and is in agony, but this is not as bad as when I had to leave her.

Abz Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Really sorry to hear this Nevin, I hope Sam a quickly recovery mate. Try not to worry too much mate, she is good hands now so they can look after her. You did your part but now just make sure you get some rest (As easy as it may sound) so then you are full of energy for her. Hopefull they find out what it is and it is something minor and she can be back to her good old self within a couple of days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nevins Posted February 26, 2010 Author Share Posted February 26, 2010 Sleep doesn't seem important right now, apart from the fact i keep passing out, insomnia aint that bad but with the added stress its knocked me for 6. I feel completely drained. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nevins Posted February 27, 2010 Author Share Posted February 27, 2010 My mum and sis have gone down for the early visit, today so I can get some rest, I rang her this morning at 7 and had a chat with her. She managed to walk a bit but she can't keep food or drink down. Her chest is still bad though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
