Wednesday 5^th December

I apologise I should have informed you all that son no 2 made it safely to BVI, his luggage meanwhile is in Barbados……!!!

Judging by the beautiful sunny photo he put up on Facebook, I don’t think he’s too bothered; he borrowed/bought, a pair of swim shorts that’s all he needs!!

I thought I’d not have to go near the hospital this week, but had to take son no 1 in this afternoon for removal of a wisdom tooth. (In between just had time to whizz to school to watch the Nativity…….!)

Knew I had to get back to hospital to collect him when I began receiving rambling texts from drug induced son, and upon arrival at the day room was informed by another patient that our son had kindly informed the whole room of our entire family history!!!

He sat in a tipped back chair with chocolate milk all over his mouth smiling inanely, ‘talking’ to the friendly nurse!! Fortunately he didn’t hurt himself sliding down the bannister or leaping over the barrier on the way out….reminded me of when he was little…. Without the drugs!!!

"Open wider," requested the dentist, as he began his examination of the patient. "Good God!" he said startled. "You've got the biggest cavity I've ever seen -- the biggest cavity I've ever seen." "OK Doc!" replied the patient. "I'm scared enough without you saying something like that twice." "I didn't!" said the dentist. "That was the echo."
