My 18 month old was admitted on 19th April - I took him to CHOC and they advised he should be admitted and stay overnight. All we had were the clothes we stood up in, I wasn't expecting an overnight stay! The nurses on the children's ward were so kind and helpful, they made sure my little boy got something to eat and then let me go home to get an overnight bag. My partner was working away so I was on my own with my son and was quite worried and scared about the situation but the nurses put me at ease straight away. They couldn't do enough for us both! A special mention goes to nurse Linda Woodend who looked after my little boy throughout the night, she was so caring, kind and kept me informed at all stages of his care. She was so lovely. I'd also like to say how good the facilities were, the playroom was great and it was really nice to have the parents room where I could get a hot drink etc. Thank you to all the staff.
