…since last Tuesday things for me have not been great, my little sister in in hospital, well she is taller than me, but 5 years younger, so maybe she is my little big sister!

She went into hospital last Tuesday afternoon with terrible lower chest and abdominal pains, and looking jaundiced. So she started off in A&E then into the Emergency Medical Assessment Unit, and now she is on a Surgical Ward. And to be honest we don’t really seem much further forward than this time last week : (

The surgical and medical team are arguing over what is wrong with her! yesterday she had a CT scan which seems to give the impression that she has had a gallstone escape and now is blocking the tube between her liver and gut, and also another stone could have escaped into her Pancreas! So tomorrow they are going to stick a camera down her throat and explore that way…

My sister in never really ill, she is the sort of person who has sprained ankles and wrists and stuff like that, but not medically ill, not hospital ill, and she is finding it very hard to deal with, especially as she back on a drip and has had a catheter inserted again.

So that is why all crafting has ground to a halt here, I have 4 finished bags, I may try and go and photograph them now the sun has come out, but everything has been very drawn out this week.

Lets hope it improves sooner rather than later, and thank you so much for all your kind words : )
