THE MEDICAL !!
Well the day finally arrived - and what a day - it was actually kind of stressful in a calm kind of way !! if that makes any sense - l suppose that was God playing his part and me playing mine !!
Firstly chest x-rays at one private hospital - slight blip on mine but nothing to cause concern apparently !! l'd overheard radiologist saying to student "perfect shot, thats the sort of frame your looking to achieve" l was soon knocked off that perch two hours later !!
Turned up at second location after walking round building twice looking for door then realized not open till 2.30; when appointment was !! Everyone gathered outside and it was like waiting for some down and out drop-in centre to open there was big blue wooden double doors and people sitting on the pavement waiting outside it was the complete opposite of the last location.
Headed upstairs to wait - elderly man appears eating muffin and dropping it on carpet progresses to pick it up and put it back in muffin case (thought obviously just wandered in off street!!) he then turned and said "aahh come on through" l looked at Andy......he looked at me, and we all went in. We were all in the same room and ended up being there until about 5.40 it was a long day and really muggy,
eventually after all having a medical (thats another story in itself!!) we had blood tests laura and myself were first - me first, yuk, felt faint - what a woosse had too lay down and have water - laura has very thin veins but wasn't bothered by the fuss at all, Lukes blood was taken upstairs by nurse that did mine and Luke looked green!! passed out and the nurse was propping him up so long that he looked like he was beginning to fit then the doctor rushed in saying don't panic don't panic pushed the chair back against the wall trying to get his head lower than his legs what a palarva !! anyway all was ok in end - doctor just said it was due to heat and lack of oxygen to the brain - l could have burst into tears......my lad out cold, then Laura drained all her colour and looked like she was going to drop l think that was shock - l'm glad all the paperwork was done !! the nurse who took mine and Luke's blood hadn't been taking blood too long as Andy and Lauras test took only seconds!! That's my excuse and l'm sticking to it.
The doctor reminded me so much of Leslie Philips from the carry on films,he had us all in stitches.
Well everything is in God's hands now so it'll be interesting watching to see what direction we are to go in next ?
Thanks for all of you that prayed you know who you are........God Bless
