Harrison's camp adventure

Harrison made it back from camp but with a few stories and bruises. Overall he rated it 3/10 (still, better than last year which was only 1/10). Main problem was food but also said he got bored with the activities.

Just to add to it, the day I picked him up, I also had to take him to the doctor. Seems he tripped and fell over at one point, injuring his finger which then got infected and had puss building up under the skin (no good for a kid with an artificial heart valve).

On top of that, he says that he hit is head and was knocked out for a short period, although he didn't tell any teachers because he thought they would 'freak out'.

So for now, he's taking drugs to fight the infection (although he is allergic to penecillan and all the standard drugs and the alternates play up with his other standard drugs - Warfarin). We also have to keep an eye on him over the next month to make sure there is no bleeding going on in his skull.
