Chidren's Hospital memories part 2

Eventually I grew older & bigger out-growing the old Princess Ward & onto the original Colton Ward in the east wing that no longer exists! On first entering this ward as a young boy it felt quite strange and obviously foreign.It was old & grey & looked pre-war.However this new old war  was to be my new "hospital hoime"! I

have many memmories & stories from inside this ward of which I will explain in upcoming series.My early "fighting days against Cf took part in this era.

Children's Hospital memories

One of my earliest memmories as a patient at the Adelaide Children's hospital, was a a very young child about the age of 4 or 5. I was in the old "Princess ward I think it was called positioned on the far notth-western corner of the site. I was in a cot with an oxygen mist tent covering the entire cot.The idea of the oxygen tent was to moisten the thick mucus that was slowly engulfing my little lungs.I had woken up & completely drenched from the vapour.No matter how loud I cried, screamed or complained no-one would remove me from this "wet" environment.These were obviously not good days & memmories of growing up with Chronic Cystic Fibrosis.Alas eventually due to my not stop complaining I was finally freed from my wet imprisment, dried & given new dry P.J's So began the early days & beginning of the Legend of the Brad Taylor Story.
