I would want to know too Gwen, but maybe he told them not to contact you, as he was ok (well walking wounded) and he didn't want you upset.

People do things in different ways, what we consider important others don't always feel like that. I am sure had things been worse, and he had to stay in hospital, you would have been contacted.

Hope he heals soon. Thank heavens it wasn't much worse.

Maybe it was for the best reasons Dizzi, maybe they were protecting you from worry. But like you i would have wanted to know. I hope he recovers OK.

when i lived in kent my son was rushed to hospital
during the night with stomach pains

he never told us till the next day
as he didnt want to wake us up in a panic
bless him

i went mad and said i should of been told
but now i do understand as i was very ill myself at the time
and he knew i would get up and come the hospital during the night

Oh Dizzi ((hug)), I don't have the answer but like you I'd want to know if it was my son.

Hi Dizzi,

(((hugs)))) for you, it must be quite a shock. Have you asked him why? Maybe he didn't want to worry you, maybe he didn't want to be fussed over :)

The main thing is that he is safe.

Take care hun xxx

I understand not wanting to worry people, or wanting to protect them. I don't necessarily agree with it, but I understand it. ;)

About 15 years ago I visited my nan when she was in her 90s. I ended up telling her a bit about the problems with the man in my life, who I was trying to get rid of - the drugs, the drink, the stealing ...

I'm sure everybody would have said not to tell an old lady things like that. But she'd been through it too with my grandfather - the drink, the gambling, the other women ...

And that gave her a chance to tell someone about it. Because I would understand, and not just think she was badmouthing my grandfather.

If we don't talk to people about things in their lives, we deny them the chance to talk about them, and they may need to do that.


I'm glad he's okay, and that you do know about it!

Does seem a bit unfair that they didn't tell you Dizzi, If it was my son I would have wanted to have been told.

At least he is safe, which I guess is the most important thing!

maybe they were waiting for you to return
as he was ok

they maybe didnt want to worry you

I don't know, Gwen. They should have done so.

I hope that he will recover well. A dreadful shock for him and for you.

mybe because he was ok and not to sreiously hurt, and they didnt want you to worry u on your weekend away hun xxx

they should have let you know but i can see why they wouldnt have told you x
