I am a little disapointed in the hospitals here in england you get it free too you pay if you earn money a little contribution.
My middle son went in last week he had a punture wound to the head they saw him straight away which pleased me. But he was pouring with blood i was covered in blood so was he. Anyway they decided it was a punture wound about 5mm deap it didnt need anything to apply presure for 5 minutes to stop it and to keep doing it wth! He is nearly 4 he doesnt keep still! Anyway its healed over a bit now.
Then yesterday my youngest fell we dont know how took the skin off his ankle so that it was just stuck on with the pressure and a fine thread. They decided to freese this and reconstruc the ankle but they couldnt do it after trying (hes 2). It was too tight so they call a plastic surgeon in who debats weather to take more skin away to try and rebuild the ankle. Well they then decide to leave it to dress it and bandage it. I have to go back every 2 days and wait (with 3 boys!) to prevent infection. It will take at least 2 months to get anywere near healing wth what are they on!
sorry for the rant
