A Lesson

Don't put the herbicide in the soft drink bottle - it leads to this..........a blood test, two ecg's (one at 2am) and an overnight stay in hospital. There's a reason for doing a Chemcert course. There's also a reason that God made mothers - it's so they over-react to situations like this and insist on taking it further instead of finding it funny.......even when they find out about it TWO HOURS AFTER IT HAPPENED........and then find out that it was discussed whether they should be told or not.

We knew the medical staff on duty; the nurse said they'd leave Maryanne to deal with Gibbo. I suggested she give Gibbo an enema; several in fact. He looked sheepish.



Drew is fine; blood and heart rate are normal. My blood is no longer boiling but my heart is still settling.

Oh dear. I thought these worries ended when they reached school age. Pleased you had a happy ending Mare. Couldn't help but laugh at the thought of Gibbo's enema!
