Update on my Uncle

His operation to complete the leg amputation went well on Monday. They tried to bring him out of the coma on Tuesday, but he got very agitated and they had to sedate him again.

He was transferred to Arrowe Park hospital in Birkenhead yesterday, and needs an operation on his pelvis, but he has now picked up a chest infection, and is having trouble breathing. I have asked my mum if she wants to go to see him, but she said she will wait for him to get a bit better, I think she is probably scared of getting upset when she sees him - my mum is not one for showing her emotions - I have NEVER seen her cry, not even when my dad died!!!!

I go to the wirral crop on Saturday, and have to pass Arrowe Park hospital, and I feel that it would be disrespectful, if I didn't call in to see him, so that is what I am going to do.
