Once more I am linking up with Heledd from Running In Lavender, for her lovely My Captured Moment link.
I have written about our youngest daughter’s health before. Unfortunately, it didn’t stop there, just days after her third birthday party she was admitted to hospital and became a frequent guest on Ward 29, of our local hospital, for the next four years.
Eventually, her consultant hit on the idea that she might be suffering from Abdominal Migraines and her symptoms certainly suggested that to be the case. A prescription of suppositories, she couldn’t take oral medication because of the constant vomiting, seemed to do the trick. In fact, I don’t like to tempt fate, but her last episode was almost three years ago after a night flight from America when she was exhausted.
My Captured Moment this week was when she returned home after her first visit to ward 29. As soon as she arrived home, she went straight upstairs to change into her nurse’s outfit. This picture was taken by Himself as he peeked in her room to see what she was up to.
I love this picture so much!
I had thought throughout the majority of her stay ,she was semi conscious, she was in such pain. However, she had clearly taken in so much of what was happening to her because, she was found to be expertly attending to her ‘patients’.
Little did we know when this picture was taken that this scene was to be repeated many many times in the years ahead. But just at this moment, we felt she was back to her funny self!!
Have a lovely day!

Ah bless her I am so glad it has resolved itself Lisa, there is nothing worse than seeing your children suffer. All you want to do it take their pain from them. Such a cute little photo it just shows how caring the nurses must have been to her x

This is so adorable. Kids understand so much more of what is happening than you realise. She was obviously making sense of it all in her own way. Lovely moment #MyCapturedMoment

Oh bless her (and you), poor little thing, that must have been a really hard time 😦 This photo is lovely though, and as you say, good to see that she learnt a lot whilst she was there! My two love playing hospitals too- I’ll often come downstairs to find a whole ‘ward’ of cuddly toys, all with different ailments! #mycapturedmoment

Oh no, I’m so sorry that this went on for all that time! Thank goodness that she now seems to be dealing with the illness and not having relapses too often. This is such a cute picture and shows how she now wants to take care of others. Thank you so much for linking up to #MyCapturedMoment xx

Thank you Heledd, she does seem to be doing much better! It just demonstrated how much she had actually taking in when we thought she was almost unconscious! It was amazing! Thank you for hosting xxx
