Sympathies for you and the wean - not being able to help is the worst thing.

I'm feeling pretty sorry for myself at the moment though, because on the first excursion day off the cruise ship I slipped on a jetty and have broken three bones in my left ankle, including both the long-bones.

Taken to Jamaica overnight and operated on the following evening, then two nights in hospital before discharging me to a local hotel that wasn't at all disabled-friendly where I was stuck for three more nights.

Repatriated via USA where we had a 7.5hour delay (thank you Icelandic volcano), before arriving in Manchester at 2.30 yesterday afternoon and driving 4.5 hours home.

Saw the doc this am and have to go to hospital tomorrow am - she wants to sign me off for 2 months but I'll go mad!!! Think kids will heal quicker though.
