Hi Everyone, feel really, really, really over the moon for you all and yes it was a very stressfull game! I didnt dare to whatch most of it and had to keep running to the bathroom feeling sick ! I was so worried Phil wouldnt be able to whatch it and I rang at 1.00 and they said he had his FA shirt on and was getting exited, but they also said that he had asked for Lorazepan tablet ( suppose to have this to calm him down when getting too stressed) only thing is it knocks him out for the count. When I got to the hospital he was very spaced out but had written loads about the game in his book ( he calls this his memory and writes everything down what is happening to him because his short time memory is beginning to fail) wasnt really able to talk to him much he keeps drifting to sleep and when awake rambles alot and it is quite distressing not being able to help him.
Anyway he rang this morning wanting to tell me all about the game and started to say he wanted me to post in his words :" Phil was given a new drug 90 mins before kick off and it knocks him out and he missed the first half. He then woke up during 2nd half very distressed that they were losing, he also found himself asking for morphine and any other help because he was finding the score too depressing" :Phil then started to drift onto other things but I will look at his book (memory) today and hopefully be able to post more of his comments to you.
Although this may be difficult for a few days as he is demanding I take his laptop to hospital today (we are trying to sort something out for him but it is taking time and Phil carnt wait) dont really know what he is going to do with it until we sort out if a internet connection is possible (even have a techno friend trying to hack into the hospitals system) but I will have to take it in just to keep him calm. Our internet at home comes through Phils laptop first and my pc is connected onto it, therefore once I disconnect the laptop I will not be able to get onto the internet until my techno mate can come and sort my connection out.
Thanks for all your comments regarding the game was for Phil and once again I am just so pleased you won.
