Thanks all. And just for clarity - Nathan is better. He had something called Kawasaki disease and heart issues caused by this. He’s still on medication and his heart needs monitored, but he’s great. I just wanted to record something of the time in writing. Because I’m not great at communicating any other way, because I don’t want to forget it, and not least because of the gratitude I have for the NHS. I’d go on strike indefinitely for nurse’s pay.
I think that's the best thing I've read of yours. It's very moving, especially when your boy is my boy's best pal. Especially when I've also been there in the hospital with my boy. I know I'm getting old and emotional but it would have made me cry when I was younger too.
This is both difficult to read and impossible to stop....it's pain and love all at once. I too long to live in reverence of simplicity and kindness. My heart is yours today...Thank you.
Very emotional and moving writing Jamie. Brought a tear to my eye thinking about your gorgeous wee Nathan being so poorly. So glad he is on the mend xx

Beautifully written, Jamie, poignant, heartbreaking and uplifting. So glad that the wee fella is on the mend.
Jeepers that is some story Jamie! Phenomenal writing.
Delighted the wee man is on the mend and well done Mum, Dad, bro and all the fantastic NHS.

You put life into sharp focus - Thanks.
Beautifully described and framed. So glad he’s ok.
