Saturday 17th November

True to form, I decided to grab every side effect going from my 'normal' baby immunisations. So much so I got to go in an Ambulance from Macclesfield Hospital to Alder Hey at top speed, sirens going, blue lights flashing the lot. It was really exciting! This time my mum got to come as well which was nice!

I had my jabs on Monday, on Tuesday my mum was a bit worried about me so took me to see the doctor at Macclesfield Hospital, they were also a bit worried so off we went on another adventure!

I stayed 3 nights on HDU (High Dependency) whilst they put me into a goldfish bowl to help ne get oxygen into my body. On Tiesday they dared to put a feeding tube down my nose so I got really mad at them, the nurse was sooo scared of me she called in the crash team, there were doctors running everywhere! He He, I was OK though!

After a few days I got to go to the top of K2 for a sleepover, they sent me there for a spot of altitude training before I could go home. I stayed in my old room, number 2 and it was really nice to see all the nurses again!

On HDU I was looked after by Lynn, Sarah, Becky, Ruth, Gavin and Naomi (nee Dayshift Naomi from the top of K2!). On the top of K2 I was looked after by Carly, Jo and Lindsey, my mum was allowed to camp out with me as well, the whole adventure was great fun. I got to go home on Saturday, the doctors think I had a cold!

My dad was telling me a story about his friend Greg, my dad said whenever Greg had a cold when he was younger, Greg's friends used to tease him about needing an ambulance. Atchoo, ne na ne na ne na! Silly boys!

I was delivered a newspaper on Thursday and I was on the FRONT page with my friend Alfie, my mum & dad and Alfie's mum & dad. BRILLIANT! I am now famous! I would like to thank Emma from the Buxton Advertiser for writing such a nice story!

The events of this week have impacted upon my dad's training (So he says), although he claims to have rode 10 miles after playing football on Sunday. Hmmm I am not so sure, but he does seem to be walking a bit funny though!

My mum and dad have got to raise more money now because they stayed at Ronald McDonald House again this week, but thankyou to everyone who has sponsored my daddy and his friends so far!
