oy worry worry worry

spent the past three days at the hospital bedside of my son.
emergency surgery for appendix burst and massive infection.
hes home now and doing well but it was a bit of a scare for him.
hes a big strapping lad of 22 and built like a bull but hes got to take it easy for a couple weeks

even though hes grown and on his own i still cant help worrying about him

had the same last year with my lad, he was carrying a washing machine when it went but had been leaking for a while before bursting, the infection was all through the stomach cavity and up into his chest- he thought it was just growing pains the daft sod - fully recovered now thankfully though scared the crap out of us at the time, hope all goes well for you and your son, something like this gives a bit of perspective and helps to keep priorities in the right order - good luck

Had the same a few years ago. You never stop worrying about your kids no matter how old they are. Hope he has a speedy recovery.
