Part 2312
(I've just spoke to Harry about the last part and the comments written and the Dm's received....I now quote Harry..."trust me dad, I was going with you to the hospital one way or another...even if I had to hide in the boot of the car"
Love you son!!
Anyway.......
Sean managed to calm William down. I've never seen Sean like that or talk with so much authority in his voice...
Me, Harry and Sean managed to eventually get to our hotel for the night. It was a nice 3 star one and the bedroom had an ensuite with a nice view overlooking their gardens.
It was decided that Harry shares the double bed with Sean.
We were all knackered so decided to have a quick shower and then bed.
Sean came out of the shower in just a pair of shorts that Harry brought with him in his backpack...
My god!!!
Sean had 4 rather large bruises on his body....
The largest was on his chest....it was the size of a dinner plate!! The second was on his right upper arm, the 3rd on his right thigh and the 4th on his right calf!
He assured us that he has been x-rayed and the doctors are fully aware of his bruises....and the police have photographed them.
He produced a letter from the hospital confirming this with notes of what he should do, like take pain killers every 4 hours etc etc.
I wasn't happy about this incident.
We all got up in the morning, naturally, without an alarm call at 05.00am!!
We turned on the tv in the room and the local news was covering this accident at the pleasure beach and was showing video footage of the incident....
It was terrifying to watch the ride carts smashing into each other and ending with them upside down....
I saw Sean squirm and he pointed to one of the carts......it was him and William.....William looked like he was 'out of it' and just flopping around like a rag doll being supported by Sean.
Sean started crying and both me and Harry hugged him.....
07.15am....
We went down for breakfast....
We were suprised it was a continental breakfast consisting of toast, croissants, pastries, fruits, yogurt, cereals, and coffee, tea, and juice.
It was help yourself, so we did!!
Sean must have been hungry... thats all I'm going to say!!!
The duty manager of the hotel came and saw us.....
Without our knowledge he had contacted the owners of the pleasure beach, who he says he knows, and told us that the owners have agreed to cover our hotel bill.....
It was a nice gesture but "I was weary of the motives behind it"
The manager saw and picked up my concern and told us the offer to pay was without any strings, it was just in 'good faith'
Harry accepted the offer as he booked the hotel in his name so thought the choice of whether it is accepted rests with him!!
Couldn't argue with his logic, so I didn't....
Sean was on the phone to the hospital and a decision on whether William will be discharged will be made at about 11.00am when the doctor 'does his rounds'
We checked out of the hotel at checkout time 11.00am and the manager said he would keep the room free for us in case William is kept in another night.....
We thanked him for his kind thought.
We got to the hospital at 11.45am...
William was sitting in a chair by his bed, fully clothed!
The doctor had discharged him!
His tee shirt and jeans were a bit bloody.....
Harry gave him a pair of jeans and a sweatshirt he had put in his back pack, handed them to him and closed the curtains so he could get changed.
William then asked Sean if he would drive home as the doctor advised him not to drive for a few days!!
Sean looked at me.....
Oh fuck....we all forgot about Williams car!!
We got to his car.....
Bloody typical....a parking ticket was stuck on his windscreen!!
