More important things than politic

Its often said there are fare more important things in life than politics, this week we heard of the sad death of the son of Tory leader David Cameron, now I've just been dealt a real blow which has knocked me for six. I've known for a while that my 21 month old grandson had a heart defect at birth, but the doctors seemed to think that it would mend itself as the little chap started to grow. My Daughter has just contacted me from Bangkok to tell me that the problem has not improved, but its worse and he will have to have heart surgery, John is not a very happy bunny at this moment in time, I just ask myself what has a 21 month old done to deserve that
 
You're absolutely right John, there are many many things far more important than politics. I hope your grandson comes through this.

I was just chatting to Maddie on the way home from the shops about how lucky I was when she was born - she was born with a cracked skull (more cracked that it should normally be when a child is born). My two friends who were pregnant at the same time had sons, one who had cerebal palsy and has sadly died since and one who had a liver problem and still has to go and spend time in Birmingham children's hospital for a few days every few months.

Our children are precious and my heart goes out to everyone who's child is suffering.

You're absolutely right, my heart goes out to you and although it might not help your little man will be in my prayers, if I can be of any help please don't hesitate to contact me,
Lots of love, Clare
 
John,
I am so sorry to hear about your grandson. You must be beside yourself wih worry. Will keep him and your family in my prayers, Bernie
 
As we said to each other this week via pm's, there are things much more important than the petty things people get so worked up about, health being at the top of that list.

I'm really very sorry to hear about your grandson, and pray he improves and goes on to have a rich and fulfilling life as his grandad.
 
Jaysay, you are so right. We sometimes lose sight of the really important things in our lives......nothing is more important or valuable than the health of those that we love.
I hope your grandson receives the treatment that he needs to make him strong and well again.
I also hope that you can be strong for your daughter and your grandson, though it must be difficult being so very far away(you imagine all sorts of things happening don't you?)
 
One of my Nephews was born with a hole in the heart, when he was about 6 months he had to go in for surgery, it was ground breaking work back then, he grew into a strapping young lad and is into his 40's with hardly a days illness.

Things have advanced even more since then I'm sure all will turn out well for your Grandson.

Aah bless him Jaysay, he hasn't done anything, not all of us are born perfectly formed .. just nature.

Things have advanced even more since then I'm sure all will turn out well for your Grandson.

Yes, they have Less, and endorse what you say that, hopefully, will be an operation that turns out to be a simpler one now, as with your nephew.

Take care Jaysay ... xx
 
Not the best news to get Jaysay. Hope the operation goes well and he grows up with no other problems. Modern science can work wonders today so all should be fine.
 
Am sorry to hear that Jaysay, dont know what else to say other than I hope the little one gets better soon x
 
I'm so sorry to hear that jaysay theres nothing worse. I lost my baby daughter in October, so i pray that your grandson gets better.

I'll be thinking of you and your family. x
 
Sorry to hear about this John, and i do hope that all the News that you get from now on is Positive News. I'm sure he's a little fighter and will get through this ok!

Best Wishes - Taggy
