I’m optimistic that rest will help Maureen and I recover from our ordeal on Wednesday.  We were both extremely tired yesterday and Maureen was frequently distressed that our children were at risk.  She remembered that she had been to hospital but thought it was to deal with her ongoing problems with her left leg and foot.
