Our neighbour Angie, is expecting her second child. Originally due in early July, the birth is now expected this Wednesday, the 10th June. Ten days ago Angie started having contractions and headed for hospital where she is under the care of a Dr Michel Sussmann, who is a much sought after surgeon, following his delivery of Angelina Jolie’s twins last year.
Dr Sussmann is taking excellent care of his patient which is what you’d expect given the amount of money Tan is paying him and he even used his influence in the Fondation Lenval (the hospital) to get Angie one of the highly sought after ‘sea view’ rooms. We visited Angie on Sunday and I have to say I was very impressed.
Patients have a choice of rooms - sea view, street view and even a suite which we reckon was what Brad Pitt forked out for. There are several types of staff looking after expectant and new mums and the food looked delicious. When we were there on Sunday, Angie was presented with lunch which consisted of Grapefruit, Gnocchi with a meat casserole and vegetables, cheese and dessert.
Unlike when she had little Violet in the UK and she shared a ward with several other patients, Angie has her own room with a TV and space enough for Tan to stay if required. It’s all rather hotel-like but look at the picture – the view of the Boulevard des Anglais and Nice beach. There’s not many hotels in Nice right on the beach and with a view like that.
Here’s hoping everything goes well on Wednesday. Keep your fingers crossed.

Congrats to Angie! That's so exciting, and great that she is going to be having such fabulous surroundings!
Yummm, I would not complain about being in the hospital if I had that delicious food for lunch either. Muchhh better than the Jell-O they seem to serve with everything over here :)
