Faith - An Auslly Story

Ally's Appointment

*To clarify, Harmony is about 9 months old now, walking with a small vocabulary. Beth is about 7 months gone. Obviously the picture attached is Harmony. ( is it just me or is that child exactly like Austin? )*

I lifted Ally out of the car and she rested on the stroller in the hospital parking lot as I got Harmony out of the car. She practically needs a stroller herself I thought to myself.

" You ready?" I said as I took her hand and we walked painfully slowly across the parking lot. I sat her down and made a bottle for harmony and as I gave it to her, Ally's name was called out by the nurse. I walked her in.

' Hey again Ally '

' Hey ' Ally smiled back.

' So Ally I can see from my records that's your current weight it your lowest yet. I am going to give you these protein tablets to help you improve. You'll be glad to know it's not anorexia this time, you've become exhausted and malnourished and we'd like for you to stay on bed rest for the foreseeable future. I'm also putting you on Iron and calcium supplements and I'd like you to eat plenty of fruit and veg. Ally you're lucky you have someone like Austin to take such wonderful care of you.

'Thanks so much doctor, I'm going to get her straight home and into bed! '

I brought Alls back out to the car, to hear she didn't have an eating disorder was beyond a relief.
