brian the critical care unit all I can describe it was a slaughter house were miracles happen a man was rushed in under the arms of two porters and I watched his chest being opened with an electric jig saw the man was dead when they brought him in next day they had him sitting in a chair at the side of his bed all the cubicles in critical care are also operating rooms just with a curtain I had a birds eye view of it all something I will never forget but it boosted my feelings for the way the doctors will do anything to try and get you back this side of the dark.. jp

Watching that op reminds me of the day we went through the abbetoir in Brisbane. How do you get over something like that in your body??

john 4/8 months recuperation time I have popped ribs trying to do little things even reaching for something like the phone I did one making a brew but the fags have gone for good trying one of those electric things but coming of that to it would be quite easy for me sometimes to get a packet but no I have pictures of me in critical care and they put me off smoking? jp

Yuk!!

with reference to consultants etc working weekends surely there is no problem with working a watch system....ie weekends on weekends off......some 25 years ago my oldest son injured his back .......he could not move arms or legs and although not a whinger he did the local doc came and sent him to hospital .......the consultant with a minimum examination.......said he will need three discs welded together...but it will be 7 or 8 weeks before i can do it on the NHS.....but i can do it in 5 or 6 days ....it will cost 8000 pounds .......that was a lot of money with mortgages.cars etc but i could have raised it......the strange thing to me was he would have used the NHS facilities ......in the meantime i spoke to the physio at leeds rhinos .......he said i will come to your house and look at him ......seeing some of the clashes on the pitch i thought no harm in him coming and thanked him very much .......within 3 visits the discs were back in place he was in a brace for a week at home .......he has never needed any treatment again on hisback and never ever been in trouble with it since .....i rang the CONsultant and told him what i thought and he could have welded the boys back so he could not have bent over again in his life .....i said to him you are a con man.trotting round with your little ducks farting behind you inyour bow tie ....he put the phone down on me ......that is the only experience in our family that has not been AI.......but he was just a one off regards cappy

Oh dear. Reading that, I'd better turn off those 'meet up' ribs on the stove. Almost ready too. Maybe something veggie next year.

cappy I have missed you I thought you might have gone to your country retreat in the town named after you LEATHER HEAD no on a serious note smoking is a nasty habit I think we all did it at sometime in our lives some get away without illness I am waiting to see or ask what type of cancer could it have been I have worked with some dodgy stuff asbestos ect that was in the first artex{stuff for patterns on walls and ceilings} that was full of blue asbestos plus the plaster I am not making excuses for smoking and I must be honest I do miss it but I have not had a cigarette since the day I knew I had the cancer and I had a chance to be fixed but so far on the mend? jp

DO NOT GO ONTO THOSE ELECTRIC CIGGIES
THAT IS AN ORDER.

THEY WILL STILL KILL YOU,

Your Lungs are only designed for Fresh Air. It is a Big Con by the Tobacco Companies, they lose cigarette sales so sell the lekky ones and still make money.
They do not give a damn about your Lungs.
All that work by the Surgeons and all the suffering you have gone through will be for Nothing.

DO NOT DO IT.!!!!!!!
or else.

Brian
