So glad you are back home and on the way to recovery.

All the best from the South Wales contingent.

Hi eddy,

But you can book a table for September then you should allowed to have one ;)

Thanks again guys, and also to everyone that sent emails and PM's wishing me a speedy recovery.... I received over 120 emails and about 30 PM's, so there's no way I can respond to everyone individually!

Curries are definitely off the menu for now Hans - The amount I can eat at the moment wouldn't be enough to feed the average 2yr old! Still it's early days, and things will get beter over the coming weeks.

Regards
Eddy

As I had time on my hands over the holiday, I browsed the site, and found this group, how sad to find that Eddy had been taken ill and was in hospital, hopefully now it seems he is on the mend, and home.
My wishes for his full recovery in the New Year.
 2010 was indeed not a good year for him regards his dear wife also, that is, I believe now recovering from her problems.
A Healthy New Year to you both.
Kind Regards, Len Knight.

Many thanks Len....

Today I got half of the clips removed from the wound, and the remainder will be taken out on monday, so it's a step in the right direction! :)

Now it's just a question of letting nature take it's course while things heal... with 25 tablets a day to take at the moment I rattle!! ;)

Regards
Eddy

Just when you think things are starting to progress.....

I've had a sharp stabbing pain at the bottom of my chest whenever I breathed deeply, coughed, or yawned etc. So I went to see my GP yesterday. She sent me off to hospital for a chest X-ray today - Which basically shows I have a chest infection.

I've been on anti-biotics for the last 4 weeks, so they aren't clearing it, and my doctor advises me to breath as deeply as possible to try and get the lung working fully and clear the infection - Easier said than done when it hurts like hell!

So what hapens now is anyone's guess :(

I don't mean to bore people with my problems, but I thought I'd keep you all up to date....

Regards
Eddy

Your recipe to sustain Eddy leaves a lot to be desired; I would recommend to Eddy a good 8 or 12 year old malt whisky in generous proportions.     I have one like Horlicks, before bed! every night.

Remember, like Domestos, whisky kills all known germs and its nicer to drink!

Get well soon Eddy,
