Thanks Keith and ward sister janet

Sam had a great invitation (along with some other patients of E39) today.

He was invited to the National Hovercraft Championships at Holme Pierrepoint and had the chance to meet several celebrities and have a go in a hovercraft.

This was thanks to Keith and his colleagues and also sister Janet Ward Manager of Ward E39 at The Children's Hospital QMC Nottingham.

Amongst the famous was Carl Froch even tho' it was his son's first birthday....
so after a bit of a photo shoot...Sam is now rivalling the celebrities at this!!! ...it was time to have a go in the machine.

If Sam's face was anything to go by it was a fantastic experience!

There will be a collection over the weekend to raise funds for the Nottingham Hospitals Charity and E39 will benefit from this. So, if you are around the National Watersports Centre pop down and have a look enjoy the celebrity races on sunday and say hello to Janet who should be there around 4pm if not before. This is a National event so all the stars of hovercraft should be there too, it's speedy and exciting, so go along!! And support them and E39.

We spent a long time on E39 and the care is exceptional, all the staff are trained not just in nursing but also in neuro care, they are dedicated and loving and laugh more than you would ever imagine! And we always say hello on our outpatient visits cos they shared our life when things were desperate, worrying, funny and downright amazing! So the more money that is raised the more difference will be made to those who follow - both children and parents and it will help to make their stay on the ward more comfortable.

Here's Janet
