Never rains but it pours!

It seems that Connor's nose is so badly damaged that the army medics are unable to fix it.  An appointment will be made for him to visit a specialist in York next week sometime! Other than this minor setback, he's back on rifle activities and reports that everything's going well for him.  It's a good job that he's a tough cookie and can take it all in his stride. Me on the other hand, well, I've found it difficult to sleep at all this week worrying about him.  Kieran found it highly amusing that I was upset that Connor couldn't have painkillers.  He bluntly reminded me that wars can't be paused every time a soldier is injured just for the sake of administering paracetomol.  Point taken!
