Hospital - yesterday Amber had our hearts in our mouths when we got a call from school saying shed passed out, gone blue and clammy and we needed to get there ASAP. When I arrived she was looking absolutely terrified at what just happened and clung on to me harder than ever. No one saw it coming ... We took her to the hospital where all tests came back fine but there was evidence of a virus in her throat. In the morning she was her usual self, still eating, still winding her brother up nothing unusual. She will have felt something wasnt right, but didnt show it or vocalise it. This is extremely scary for us and also her 1 to 1 at school as any other child would communicate they didnt feel so good. I asked her how her school day was while waiting for tests to come back as I always do.. She told me Amber got belly ache and fell over and was scared mummy. Vocalising after the fact she was scared meant she knew something was wrong but will associate poorly with belly ache or headache even if its not always what is happening. Im extra happy that it was nothing majorly serious, but its a stark reminder that her sensory issues can infact be dangerous and have a massive impact on her well being.
