Going to clinic

A couple of days later Mum had to take Ali back to the hospital to see the Doctor. Nik went too. The clinic was hot and very noisy and they had to wait for a long time. Mum had told Nik to bring his book but he couldn't read as there was too much to watch. Nik began to feel quite ill. Some of the children were crying, no-one seemed to have any hair and some children had tubes coming out of their noses. Suddenly Nik felt hot and panicky and wanted to run away. Nik got out his book and decided to concentrate on that instead.

Most people find it hard to be with people who are ill.
Lots of brothers and sisters feel that their Mum and Dad doesn’t love them as much as their sick brother or sister.
Mums and Dads love all their children,
but when someone is poorly they need
their Mum and Dad more for a little while.
