Convalescing

A Memory of Heswall.

I remember being in Heswall Hospital at Christmas and a Nativity scene being in the entrance to the ward. I used to sleep on a wooden 'Nelson' to help drain the mucous from my infected lung, with the bi-fold doors wide open for the fresh air, we had apricot jam sandwiches for tea, and to this day I dislike apricot jam. The older girls used to bath us. I must have spent quite a few months there, after being in Liverpool Childrens Hospital. I must have had my birthday in there too in January, and when I went home I had a brand new bicycle with 2 speed gears. These are happy memories I have of being there.
