It’s awful when the little ones are sick.  Must be a relief to all that he is well enough to be discharged.  Hope both grandsons recover quickly.

Poor little g/son in hospital over weekend. Parents took him to A&E as he was wheezing badly and they admitted him onto ward. They've kept him in for two nights on oxygen and medication to open airwaves. I was going over to hospital today to give parents a break but they are hoping Dr's will discharge as hes much better now and a parent has to be there for discharge 

Other baby g/son also has another cold, only 2 months old and has had a few already 

 

Glad to hear he is well enough to be discharged.  Always sad when the babies are not well.   Hoping for a speedy recovery for both😀

Beautiful beaches near you Graham.  When I think of English beaches I think of the ones I visited in Devon that were pebbly beaches.

We live on the North East coast of England.

It is about 400 miles north of Devon.

There are lots of fabulous beaches on the Durham, Northumberland coast.

Very sad day here,last night at 1:20 am our Feral Cat we got 4 years ago passed here at home.

She has been through alot but now is in a better place.

Graycie had FIV and later she had Feline Leukemia, she also had to have all her teeth extracted because of infections.

Last few days she wasn't eating or drinking. I really think she knew it was time. I was with her when she passed.

My Wife is heart broken, she followed my Wife around the house everywhere,she was her shadow I used to say. She even used to sleep on my Wife's back while sleeping.She was always close to Wife where ever she was in the house.

 

First picture is of her helping my Wife working from home.

Second picture was taken just yesterday afternoon

Still with a smile on her face. A real trooper. That is the way we want to remember her.

We both are going to miss her greatly.

RIP Graycie

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Our  cat sitter brought over this group pictures yesterday after hearing Graycie wasn't good.  Such a nice young lady to do this for us.

Just heard Dr's want him to stay at least one more night. I think oxygen levels naturally drop at night so though he seems fine during the day, they aren't totally happy with his levels at night 😔

Waiting to hear if we can go over to give them some respite

One of the many places I want to visit. Last time I was up there was on our honeymoon 36 years ago

I am really sorry to read this. Fortunately for Graycie, you provided her a much better life than she ever would have had as a feral out on her own. Hopefully knowing that provides you and your wife some comfort but the loss is always hard.

How long ago did you leave BC.  I think prairies would be hard for me to live in.  I need to see mountains every now and again.

 

 

I left after university (UBC). I was posted right across the country to Gagetown New Brunswick. I know what you mean- even though every area of the country is beautiful (except for some areas of Ontario), mountains are where I feel most at home. If there’s an ocean, even better!

 

My husband loves the prairies- he was born in Edmonton. We do have plans to move to BC eventually, around Osoyoos.

Always hard when little ones aren't feeling well.  Hope he is well enough to go home soon.  Looks like it's going to be a long winter.

I hope your grandson improves enough to go home soon and the baby feels better too.  Poor Mom & Dad must be exhausted.

@Jimbo  So sorry about Graycie, may she rest in peace and live on in your memories.  

[StanleyandGus]

@Jimbo You and your wife saved Graycie from being a feral kitty, and if my memory of cat trees and cat toys is accurate at your place, she was a spoiled princess, as all cats deserve to be!

Lots of chat here on news sites that there should be a disclaimer that it is fictional, based on true events. Former Prime Minsters depicted saying that conversations between them and then Prince Charles are pure fiction but show PC in a bad light for instance. 

Personally I think that now its more up to date and people shown are still alive they should put out a disclaimer before each episode. 

Haven't started watching yet but I will at some stage

I am not quite "at home"😁 with the new actress portraying Her Majesty. I loved Olivia Coleman playing the role.

I hear you about the disclaimers.

[Arzeena]

Jimbo, I am very sorry to hear about your poor cat.

I'm happy he is feeling better and is now discharged. There sure has been a lot of stuff going around. Our Children's hospital here is packed with kids having RSV issues.
