Sorry I didn't update anyone yesterday, I am sure people would want to know what happened.

I called the hospital in the end, they were there. However they wouldn't tell me what was going on, and said that C would call me later. Ofcourse, C never did. So I called again, and they would not give me any info. SO I had to tell them that N was taken without my permission to the hospital and that I am the mother and needed to know what was going on. They told me then that everything was ok, and no need to worry. Which is what my instinct was when I saw the rash. But I could hear N crying in the background, it was hysterical crying, and I was very very upset that all this was unnecessary. I was just helpless.

But then C came home, and I made a decision no arguing infront of N, and I would tell him later how bad it was that he took N like that with no food or essentials for 4 and a half hours. But he went mad, saying I had no right to call the hospital. I am quite concerned now that by what hes done, the hospital may call social services because firstly it is very odd that a baby should arrive at A&E with no mother, and second with no essentials. If that happens, it may be both a good or bad thing.

But one good thing did happen. My father now knows whats going on, something I have not told him. I told my mother and sister before what C is like, but now my father knows too, and his reaction was that C is mentally ill and needs urgent medical attention. I tend to agree with him, he does have acute paranoia, but now the dilema is how to get him to have this medical attention he so desperately needs. Thinking caps on, but from now until then, there is noway I will ever leave N with him again....

thanks for EVERYONES comments. What he did was because he wanted to get his own back on me. I really felt supported yesterday and you're all stars!
