Back to Koblenz Hospital

The whole group returned to Boppard yesterday evening for our final concert. Except this time we were on their coach so instead of getting the tiny ferry we had to drive all the way up to Koblenz and back down the other side of the river which took about an hour!

The concert was great and the weather remained warm and sunny; it was a good gig.

However another pupil took ill with severe stomach pains during the concert, and they continued for hours. I consulted with Jamie by phone (my hero) and he was pretty sure that it was a gastric bug, but without being able to examine her he couldn't be absolutely certain. The pupil was doubled up with pain, so eventually I took her to Koblenz Hospital just in case it was something more serious - I couldn't believe that I was back there again! Long story short, it was indeed a gastric bug which was a huge relief. She was a brave girl. We got back to the hotel just after 4 a.m. and had to get up again at 7! We are now in the bus on the long journey home and gastric pupil is peacefully asleep. I'm going to try to get some sleep too.
