Hospital Admission

We thought that Caroline would be able to go to hospital on the Monday, but we have just been told that she will need to admitted tonight. The reason is that she is second on the surgeon's list and so will have the operation in the morning and not the afternoon as planned.

The good news is that she has been able to see Nathan return back from a successful (if not wet and muddy) scout camp, where he got his pioneering badge. She will have time to put the kids to bed and then Ray will drive her to the hospital at around 8.00pm.

She will be staying at the Northumberland ward at St.Thomas' Hospital. The hospital is directly opposite the Palace of Westminster on the South bank of the River Thames. This was the hospital where Bethany was born.

Visiting
I know that many of you in London would like to visit Caroline in hospital. We have been advised that the earliest time would be this coming Wednesday. There is a limit as to how many people can come and I know that someone will be organising some kind of visiting rota at Holy Trinity Church. (will let you know how this is). If you are not at Holy Trinity then contact Ray and he can advise you as to when is the best times.

Thanks
We have been overwhelmed by the thoughts, support and prayers of so many people around the world!! You have been amazing and we feel your concern in a tangible way. Please continue to pray for us and I promise to keep you updated with further news tomorrow.
