hello everyone how are you all.
yes i am still here, reading all of your journals daily as the alerts appear in my email in box or pop up on the screen.
have been having quite a rough time here of late. mostly problems with charlie boy and his new school. i was phoned last week to say he had had an accident and could i go up.....i said ok i will be as quick as i can...they said please asap there is an ambulance on ots way!
so off i race and get to school. no ambulance to be seen so i calmed down a bit. started walking through the school with a very worried receptionist. "it cant be that bad if i beat an ambulance" i said.....they are up the field with him already, was the reply i got!
so i ran....and ran....and ran. how i didnt pass out i will never know.
he was on a spinal board when i got there with neck colar on and loads of straps to keep him imoblised.
they then went on to give him morphine. at this point i was close to collapse myself.
went to the hospital and after he had been checked over by the doctor, while we were waiting to have xrays, he told me what had really happened. an older boy, year 11, picked him up and threw him to the ground as he thought my boy had spat at a girl!
you can imagine how i reacted.
i straight away phoned the school and told them what had happened and named the boy who had assulted mine.
we were finally discharged, although they wanted to keep him in for observation, with a wiplash and concussion, with strick instructions to have him with me at all time over the next few hours.
he still hasnt gone back to school as he is refusing to go...who can blame him.
on a nicer not we are off on our holiday to Orlando on the 26th November, so less that 2 weeks now! any good advice for me as regards to the travelling and things to do will be greatly welcomed!
take care everyone
still love you all lots!

Lovely to see you again Joanne, but so sorry to hear that Charlie has had a bad time at school.......why are some kids so nasty???!! They need sorting out big time and I don't blame Charlie for not wanting to go to school! Keep in touch sweetheart and let me know how things are going, love Joan

That's terrible. Hopefully your holiday can help to settle your minds about things and maybe Charlie boy will be happier to go back to school.

That is terrible! poor kid! What a blow to his confidence too...you will have to have twice as much fun now to make up for it ;-)...it looks like the weather will be fine...like i said a bit chilly in the mornings and evenings so jeans wouldn't go amiss...you'll find lots to do..things are cheaper here..cinema tickets are only about $10 so you could do that..there's the theme parks of course and then putt putt golf..arcades..shops..more shops..etc etc..i will email you my home phone number in case you are in need of anything okay??
Hugs
