RL & fic recs

So, yesterday was fairly terrifying.
I got a phone call from Mr B's work to say that he'd been taken ill & the paramedics had just taken him to the local A&E.
I've always wondered how I'd react in this kind of situation & now I know - I was terrified - crying & shaking so that I could hardly call my folks to ask for a lift to the hospital.
Anyway, the good news, after spending all afternoon at the hospital is that they've let him come home. He's off work & I'm determined to stop him from working over the holidays because I'm sure overwork (& a really nasty virus) has helped get him in this position in the first place.
~*~
And so it was great to read two lovely festive fics that really made me smile & feel happy.

They're both wonderful, warm stories that are perfect if you're feeling down.

It was pretty scary & I'm just so relieved that it wasn't something worse.
Yes, I'm determied to make him rest properly! :-)

Date: 24 Dec 2005 06:21 am (UTC)He's been suffering with a nasty virus for a few weeks & I think it finally floored him. It was very scary for a while as his lips were turning blue & they had him rigged up to an ECG. Luckily he's getting better - slowly, but better which is the main thing!

I was pretty terrified there for a while - imagining the worst, you know?
But he's doing okay & slowly getting better. We're just planning a nice quiet Xmas with me & Rask making sure he doesn't do too much. ;-)
Love to you & Captain Pete. ♥
