We took Olivia to Hospital and were seen by a Paediatrician about 12ish. She said they had decided to do an MRI to rule out a brain tumour. That was a hell of a shock.

She had an MRI at about 3.30pm. I went with her to be sedated. It was awful. They couldn't get a line in so I had to hold her as they put the gas in front of her nose for a while then put the mask over her face. Once she went all floppy we lifted her on to the trolley and I kissed her and they took me out. It was horrible leaving her.

Luckily the Consultant came back to us quickly to say it was normal. He's apparently gone to the scan and looked at the results then and there. We waited a while for Olivia to come round.

They want to monitor her for the rest of the day and tomorrow and then probably let her go.
