the Corniche Womens Hospital - Abu Dhabi

Celia has an insect in her eye, it must have embedded itself whilst we were driving with the top off the jeep. I pull over and make several unsuccessful attempts to remove it. It's quite big and seems to be actually adhered to her eye. I'm panicking as know the dangerous diseases some insects carry.

As we're on the Corniche race up to the Corniche Womens Hospital as sure they will be able to remove it safely. As we enter the foyer of the hospital a security man rushes at my son Toby, arm raised menacingly brandishing a truncheon as if to attack him.
