SS10 in hospital!
Just heard from OH that SS10 has an infected lymph gland, but it's obviously pretty serious as they've admitted him to hospital for 48 hours so they can give him IV antibiotics.
I'm currently all of a dither about what to do about visiting him - his mum is staying overnight with him, and OH is stopping by their house to get clothes for both of them to take up tonight, which he's doing straight from work.
I want to go visit so he realises that I do care about him (and as I've got an MP4 which he admires greatly I'm thinking I can load some music & films on it that he'll like and loan it to him for while he's in there) but as I'm not even married to his dad I'm unsure of where I stand to even get in to the children's ward. I don't want to bug OH about it as he's obviously stressed out enough at the moment as it is.

Well, I've just OK-d with
Well, I've just OK-d with the big boss to come in a bit late tomorrow so I can go with OH to visit in the morning and then come in. OH is on a later shift this week, so he can go in before work in the morning, but afterwards it's going to be going straight there because of the time he gets back.
Storm, I'll be keeping SS in
Storm, I'll be keeping SS in my thoughts as well as you and OH. I think going with him in the morning is a great idea. (((((STORM)))))

aww storm honey I think you
aww storm honey I think you should visit the little guy...show your support:) maybe bring him some boy magazines to read or something like that... Maybe call the hospital just to check and see if you would be able to at least drop off a little hospital care package for him if they won't let you in to see him.

Magazines are a good idea
Magazines are a good idea (I'd already thought the classic grapes would be good as he loves them). I know children's wards tend to have quite a lot of distractions for the kids, but hospital is still a very dull place to be!
I don't think she's ban me
I don't think she's ban me from visiting, it's more the awkwardness as we've never spent any time together without OH present. Still, I suppose she's hardly likely to cause a big scene in front of SS10, I'll just have to be a bit careful not to say anything that might be taken the wrong way, especially as she'll already be stressed out.
Perhaps I should get OH to ask her if she minds me visiting?
Storm, your SS will be in my
Storm, your SS will be in my thoughts and prayers. I hope he gets well soon.
I hope your ss gets better
I hope your ss gets better soon. You should go visit him. Just have your DH say that you are his wife. That usually works. I had a similar situation and just said, Im ss's stepmom (before I was married to DH) and they walked me right back without DH.
Storm...hope your SS is
Storm...hope your SS is doing better and everything goes OK.
My BF asked me to go with him when his kid had outpatient surgery. I mentioned BM and he said it was for HIM, not her. If your BF wants you there, then you should be there to support him.
