exxy cancelled, a parents nightmare..
unfortunately I have to cancel my exmouth trip, i was so looking forward to it as my son(15) was going to come along, and was keen for some fishing tuition in the best surroundings i could of imagined , with great company,
he collapsed the other night , and is now in pmh, diagnosed anorexia, a teeneger who went on a simple diet for his own self looks etc, he wasnt overwight, started with cutting out junk etc, but he became obsessed, and his mom and I had sort outside help, due to his massive rapid weightloss , you dont know whats happening on the inside,
thank god he is in pmh, its been a hard few months, and i,m sure a few hard more but he can only return to full health from here,
looks like next year now for me,
on a positive we took my lad out to the shelf a couple of weeks ago and although conditions were poor, we only dropped once he handled it, he has the stomach and courage of a true fisher , so we will get there,
anyways to all parents with teens, the tell tale signs are there, and we thought we had caught this but believe me it creeps up on you quick,
cheers

shit that sucks mate, 2 of my 5 have been in PMH in the early days-there is nowhere better even though it can be quite a confronting place.
I hope you guys can get on top of it successfully

thanks guys
thanks guys, its amazing as a cople weeks ago the local gp said his cholestoral was super high, he couldnt explain it from the tests, but after discussions with the doctors at pmh, the reality is quite shocking to any parent, how the body tries to survive and what it does,
the staff there are amazing, and the re building has already begun, from the inside out,
cheers

Tough couple of weeks
You can get there anytime mate. It's just a short drive away-
It's hard for the young ones today! Facebook twitta etc it's all there
Just let him know you'll take him when he's ready so he's got something to look forward to and no pressure;)
The staff in PMH are gold.. And Icu joondalup

All the best Harro, Im sure
All the best Harro, Im sure he'll be back on his feet fighting a bent rod instead in the near future
I am, as I've said, merely competent. But in an age of incompetence, that makes me extraordinary.

Good luck with it all Harro.
Good luck with it all Harro. I've been through the wringer with my youngest boy (cancer scare) and PMH are very good as well as the support staff. He'll get there and you'll be out and about when the time is right. Best wishes.
Love the West!

A sign of the times like you say with all the pressure kids are under with social media etc. I am sure they will sort him out and get him back to full health. Exxy can wait another year and when you boys do head up there it will all the more special. Take care.

thanks matty
yeah kyles is much better, a few long days with specialists and now kyle has started his long journey, he is optimistic and accepting help which is great, i,m home tonight so i get to sleep in my own bed, the recliners get to you after a while, but we have all learned so much and his support from his school and pmh family and friends is fantastic,
thanks guys
