Not good

We went to A&E, a friend gave us a lift there .My husband is in a wheelchair, he was very unwell. We were told that he was to be sent home to wait to see a GP, he started vomiting and they took a closer look and the view of his condition changed completely and he was admitted to Kesgrave Ward (pretty good!) but I still worry what would have happened if he hadn't been sick and we had gone back home.
