Moment

I'm being cheeky today and combining a blog post with the Five Minute Friday link-up. Herself sometimes does FMF but this week, I got in there first. The topic is 'moment'.

I had a moment in June when I ended up in hospital. This morning I went back for a check-up.

Setting off in Herself's handbag.
No one would ever guess I was in here, all snug and safe.

Aaagghh! After driving round and round before finally finding a parking space, guess what?
The ticket machine was out of order.
STRESS!!!
Am glad Himself was with us and knew what to do.

I need an ECG to check my little heart is beating properly.

Here we are, ECG Outpatients.

Lots of wavy lines means my heart is behaving.

 

Herself was so pleased that we went for a celebratory walk in the
autumnal woods afterwards.

Today has been full of moments: nice, worrying and otherwise. But Someone who loves little bears like me has been looking after us.

Unexpected

It's been a funny old week.... After the fun of Monsal Head I didn't expect to end up in hospital two days later. It was quite exciting though in its own way.

I was a poorly bear so Himself took us to hospital.

Sucking my thumb helped while the nurses checked my heart beat.

 

Having my blood pressure taken was fun.
A few times the cuff pinged off (I don't think that's meant to happen). 

This isn't Herself force-feeding me.
The doctor thought I might feel better if I could blow into a syringe.
I blew till my cheeks went red, but it didn't make me feel better.

This contraption on my paw measured how much oxygen was in my blood.

I took a book to while away the time in A&E.

I had to stay in overnight.
Herself was allowed to stay with me and we snuggled up together.
I'm glad she was there.

Sometimes I felt a bit worried and sucked my thumb.
But the doctors and nurses took good care of me.

Here I am back home, feeling much better.
