Arnold has an Ultrasound Scan

WARNING — Review of this information is overdue. It may be out of date.

One day Arnold and his little brother Danny were playing with their cars, racing them across the kitchen floor. It was great fun.

Arnold’s Mum came into the kitchen and they stopped playing. It was time for their glass of milk and a biscuit. Good, They were both hungry.

As they sat at the table with their drink and biscuit Arnold’s Mum told him that the hospital had sent her a letter. Arnold looked up. He remembered going to see the doctor in a place called the clinic. That was the part of the hospital where you went to see the doctor and then went home the same day. That was quite good.

Arnold asked Mum “Why has the hospital sent you a letter?” “Well” she said “The doctor wants to see you again, it won't take long and we’ll be home in time for tea.”
