Back to Jimmy's - to stay for a bit
Maddy went back to Jimmy's at 7.30 this morning - not feeling too good.
Notionally,this was as a day patient for her IT (intrathecal), but she's been admitted back to the ward and will stay in for at least one or two nights to recover. Although she was really pleased to get home, Maddy was finding it difficult to feed and drink and so there was no real choice but for her to stay at the hospital.
Her IT has been postponed until tomorrow.
She may not be well enough for visitors for the next day or so.
If you were thinking of visiting, it's probably best to call or text her mum (Julie) on her mobile, first, on 0773 0921720.
Thanks to all those of you who have posted comments on the blog, mostly friends from school. Thanks folks, it's very encouraging for Maddy. Although she's not up to using the laptop at the moment, we can read the messages out to her and she's really chuffed that so many people are 'looking after'.

Dear Maddy,
It's Kerry, May's mum.
I cry at the slightest thing and, believe me, you are not the slightest thing. So this website has had me blubbering.
It's all such a mixture of horrible unpleasantness, worry, disruption and uncertainty, along with good news, positive thinking, human beings at their most useful and kindest, and lots of funny things!
And there's you in the middle, bringing all that out of all of us.
May's hoping to visit again when you've got a window of opportunity so she'll let us know how you are.
She had two GCSE science modules this morning and HADN'T done enough revision so she was in a bit of mood. Hopefully she'll be a bit more chilled this evening!
Anyway lots of love and good thoughts to you and Julie and Chris and Bob and Bertie.
Kerry McQuade
