I haven't been around for a few days,as John's breathing was getting worse on Friday morning,so I took him to A and E.Spent all day there with him.He had 2 Litres of fluid drained from his left lung and spent the night on a corridor bed in A and E.On Saturday,he was transferred to an assessment ward,where he still is.He has a chest drain ,from which another 2 Litres has been drained.Doctors are trying to find out why his lung keeps filling up.Going in to visit again this afternoon.
Many thanks for all your views,comments and favs,always much appreciated.
So sorry to hear your news and I hope he gets better soon. The most important thing is to find out why his lungs keep filling up like this. I used to work at Papworth! Beautiful photo

Hi Carol. I happened to look in on the site and saw your lovely photo and caption. I'm so sorry to hear that John is unwell. I'm sure he's in very good hands and the hospital will have some answers and be able to administer appropriate treatment soon but what a worrying time for all of you!
Thank you for updating us, Carol. This is such a worry and so stressful for you both. As others have said, I really hope John gets a diagnosis and proper treatment very quickly. Try to take care of yourself in the midst of this. (And you managed to post a lovely photo! So pretty! Fav)
