No post yesterday on account of being overtaken by events while at work on Thursday evening. The Blonde rang at 8.20pm to say Lucifer had had some sort of fit and could I get up to the north west quick. Left immediately, arriving at Warrington after midnight. L was conscious and talking but had been fitting for a minute or so - blue in the face - and was in an altered state for 20 minutes, coming round fully in the ambulance. Scared the life out her mother, sister and me. We waited until 2am yesterday for her to be admitted and then had long chat with doctor from the children's ward who said, it seems to me now, that it was just one of those things and that they wouldn't do any tests for epilepsy unless there was a repeat episode.
Lucifer stayed in overnight for observation but was home by 11.30am. Went to see her then drove back feeling that I really am a long way away from them and not much use at all.
Not a good day.
