I thought at my age i had been lucky and avoided any surgery .........yeh well i decided to have a stroll across Hampstead Heath.parked the motor strolled to a parking ticket machine and wallop StRAIGHT over on a broken ice covered paving stone accompanied by the charming sound of bones snapping

a quick glance at my leg revealed my foot

at right angles to my leg.
I managed to to attract the attention of a passing car and the couple in it immediately phoned for an ambulance which took 50 minutes to arrive

in the meantime a first aider from the Heath arrived shortly followed by a passing GP out for a stroll with her children. The temperature was around freezing and the GP advised against any movement whatsoever.
The ambulance drivers explained upon their arrival that they were considerably understaffed and the call out levels were extremely high/
Anyway to cut a long story short i endured a 90 minute operation had a cardiac AF incident and was in hospital for 8 days.
The point of this post is that given my first hand experience observing first hand the grossly overworked staff at all levels its bloody obvious if the public dont get their act together their NHS will be destroyed by the current Government
Lets make it clear i encountered staff from all over the globe working determinedly for our NHS they were almost all brilliant and caring ...........i thank God they were there .......................so now its 3 months on crutches heart investigations ...................confronting muscle wastage

BUT I'M STILL BREATHING
PROTECT YOUR NHS
