update from hayley

i know your all hoping this is claire, but its hayley (sharpsecret) iv just been talking to her on the phone from hospital and she asked me to update.

When she got to hospital her potassium had dropped to just 2.2, and the docters were worried that her heart would just stop. She was put on a heart moniter until it raised to 2.7. She is very depressed in there and has been crying alot. Shes on alot of tablets and medicine, and 4 insulin injections a day.Her health is a bit better,but shes still under alot of observation.

Her dad of course had to find out about all of this. She was suprised by his reaction he was very concerned and is visiting her daily, just tryin to keep her focused on getting better.

She recently found out that on wednesday she has to go into inpatients in london. And if she had denied to go they even threatened to section her, which pretty much shows how scary all this is.

In her heart she knows that she cant go on like this and im praying that all this can change her life around because shes only 16 :(

In hospital shes on half potions of food, and they threatened to tube feed her if she doesnt eat half potions,however she had her own ensuite in her room which is pretty stupid so u can imagine where all the food is going to.

She is VERY eager to update her diary, and has been writing constantly in hospital.In the eating hospital she can have the internet after a week so she will try and keep updated.

I have the address to the eating hospital leave me a note or email me on [email protected] if u would like to send her a letter or card.

i hope that helps people on here. she needs all the friends she can get.

takecare
