Hi Gang, another UPDATE, Thanks again for taking the time to read and reply. They mean a lot.

Well here comes the curveball!

my son came up this morning and had only been here about 15 mins when the staff nurse came over and said how very sorry he was but they were asking visito4s to leave immediately and were closing the ward due to possible Norovirus.. A lady in the ward died suddenly yesterday and they have been doing tests. They said they had not had it confirmed yet but due to safety guidelines, the ward would be closed until further notice,!,  unreal or what.

The lady had been sitting talking o her visitors in the afternoon but at night she was sick and went a dreadful colour. There were only 2 staff on and we had a lady screaming like a banshee, cursing swearing and throwing things etc, so all their attention was on the wrong patient.    I will say no more.

So now my son hasn't a choice, he's not allowed in or even drop things off.

I'm scared to ask the question " Can things get any w=== We also missed seeing our granddaughter on her birthday for the first time in 11years. Please join Ulls and say a prayer, this is really tough.

Well, It's my own fault! I did sort of a ask the question Can things get any worse?

I now know the answer is YES. The boiler has shut off so the heating has gone off. This part of the hospital was built in the 18th century so it is very old with very high ceilings and now it is, Ve cold!!!  Probably because it is minus -6 tonight!! Brrr! Snow is forecast for tomorrow oh joy!!  ️

I really am NOT making it Up!!

Oh my goodness Annette, you are having a torrid time! I am glad the holiday was good until you felt poorly. But your hospital stay sounds far too interesting.

I hope that you don't catch the Niro virus, you keep warm and they sort out the problems you have. 

Love and hugs xxxx

Oh my word! No you couldn’t make it up. Sounds like some terrible film. Hope you can stay warm. And that you can get home soon! 
love Jac x

Oh no Annette, the boiler should be among the first things to be fixed. Hopefully. The screaming, swearing, throwing things around woman sounds like what I went through in ward 17 of the Ulster hospital. Forgot to say that the woman was sedated only to be replaced by a man who threw stuff around. He was sedated too. I think both were transferred to a mental health unit. I remember that it was very worrying and frightening at times. 

I suppose you can't even get transferred to another hospital in case you bring an infection or virus with you. You'll be glad to meet your family when you next see them. Has Vince been able to get to see you in hospital yet? I'm so very concerned about you Annette. How are things with your leg now? Hope there's a great improvement.

Take care Annette

Hi again Annette, I know that it's really important to you to see your grandchildren on their birthdays but this time it was unavoidable and it wasn't possible. Please don't dwell on that as I know as well as you do that it's more important that you get yourself well and get out of there back to the warm group hug from your whole family. Definitely something to spur you on.

I've done a prayer. Everything will look different in a week, your health, the weather and seeing your family.xx
