Yesterday our son Tom was away on a school trip when we received a phone call from school to say he was not well. He had stomach pains so we went to collect him.

When he came home he went for a sleep with Rhonda but the pain did not go. About 5pm ish Rhonda decided it was time for the hospital. They suspected appendicitis and moved him to an assesment ward.

Typically our eldest son Sam, was on his way back from his French exchange trip. I collected him from school at 7pm and went straight up to the hospital.

He was assessed by a very nice, but not much use, Doctor and had bloods taken. If I said Tom does not like needles it would be an understatement. I thought he was going to pass out just having that done.

Tom was then moved to the ward and I stayed until almost midnight. Rhonda stayed with him all night. Not much sleep went on at home and I got a text from Rhonda early this morning to say he was booked in for an appendectomy this morning.

I will be up the hospital again as soon as Rhonda's parents arrive to look after our other 2 children.

Get well soon Tom we all love you. You are in the best hands ever as your Mum is with you and I am sure the staff will look after you as well.

Get well soon Tom.

I've met you a couple of times, and you're a credit to your mum and dad, who I know will spoil you rotten after your op.

You'll probably have the lomgest summer holiday in the world now!

Enjoy it, and you'll soon be better than new.

Hope He's soon on the mend Neil, its never nice when any of your kids are unwell, but when they are in hospital and about to have an operation its a real worry, hope everything goes okay Neil
 
Worrying times for all of you Neil and even though you now it's a minor procedure these days you can't help worrying, it is your baby thats going through it after all.
Get well soon Tom, play it for all it's worth ladxxxx
 
Although I haven't met the people concerned, I know what it's like to be a parent with a sick nipper. I would just like to wish Tom a quick & safe recovery & young Tom all the best. (Hospital stays usually involve new games for XplayDSstaionboxy thingy & Ice cream, make sure Mum & Dad are aware of this :D :D)

Hope you are well soon Tom. Must be a worry for your mum, dad and brother. Sure you will get spoilt when you get home.
 
Get well soon Tom, and take it easy after the op. Hugs to you and Rhonda Niel, I know only too well what a worry it all is, my Dean suffered the same last year (As Rhonda knows). Poor lad I sent him to school the first day coz I thought he was putting it on a bit. It was almost ready for rupturing when we took him in the next morning :-( he was a lucky lad!.

I'm sure you'll spoil him when he's well. xx
 
Tom is out of theatre and will be back on the ward soon :)
