Hi everyone.
It wasn't great news last week at the hospital. The x ray showed that Harrisons hip hadn't healed as much as the consultant would have liked - he wants the brace to stay on during the night and we need to go back for another x ray in 3 months time. We are worried that it's not improving at all - the consultant didn't say this but at the same time he couldn't see whether there had been much improvement as last time they did a scan - therefore this cannot be compared to an x ray. The consultant seemed quite positive although did mention that if surgery was needed this is normally between 12 and 18 months - we really hope that this isn't the case and to be honest we are trying not to think about this at the minute. Anyway, the brace doesn't bother Harry - and he is sleeping through the night now which is fantastic! I'll keep you all updated.

Nicole - good luck with Scarletts next appointment and hope work goes ok!

Haileys mum - hope Hailey is doing well out of her plaster.
