SteveD Posted February 6, 2013 Author Posted February 6, 2013 I've already sent this txt to Steve and I dont want to go through it again. This morning I took a call to say a friend had died, someone I take exercise with everyday at work, walked with him and another friend over the last 8 or so years probably around or in excess of 1000 miles in total. We walk and discuss, express opinions, argue and debate; all the time getting a good bit of exercise from a fast 40 minute walk. He was the fittest of the 3 and a long distance runner. Determined and honourable but also ignored some warning about his health. Last night at 6:30 he had a heart attack and later died in hospital. 45 years old, 2 kids and a wife.Just starting to plan for a retirement in 10 or so years. I'm p******** with him for not taking it seriously I dont know what the doc had said but we had discussed some issues he had with blood pressure. We dont get many warnings but when we do they have to be taken seriously. i feel for you ash i really do mate your txt really knocked the stuffing out of me yesterday ,its never nice loosing some one you know and are close to , it is made far worse when it is sudden i would imagine ,everyone i have lost that has been close to me we have had a warning or knew it would happen , i dread to think what its like to have the call or be told what you have Quote
Man On The Clapham Omnibus Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 Well done Steve, I'll let you into a little secret. You've been scaring me pooless. I'm so relieved you've seen the sense at last. Speaking of which, I hope you've done your poo sticks test Norm? Take your own advice, obviously! Quote

Norman Verona Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 Bev's got it dead right. You need treating like a chuffing baby if you're going to act like one. 1 Quote

Its difficult being patient, sound as though your lady is talking sense, TAKE NOTICE all the best for a full recovery and being back to Steve normal Quote

Mooch Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 bev has just been back to collect my medication , holly chuff how many pills The pills are easy enough, but how are you going to swallow the dog, TV remote and the shoes?....tough medicine! Here's hoping everything sorts itself out soon, Steve. Reading with interest - it's all sobering stuff for us of a certain age, but looking forward to 'normality'. Stick with the plan, and get well soon. Quote

s2rrr Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 Steve, you seem to be facing it now, the pills are a pain in the ar*e especially if they are suppositories whooopps. Take heed , I'm sure you did, of Ash's message. You are still standing and fighting so just do that, you know what Bev means to you as Willem and the pooch so chins up mate and you will be fine if you stick to the game plan. All the pills do is take 10 seconds off your now more relaxed days and they will help you recover back to the more healthy, less stressed bloke you will become. If there are things you need doing in the unit just let Dave, Fraser, Ash or Marshall know and I'm sure we can get over and have a go for you. It will all come together, in time, just a little bit longer than you first planned. Good to hear Marshall say your'e looking better. Andrew Marr had a wobble a month ago and he hasn't appeared as yet. Every brain event is different and you are still as mad as a box of frogs, the sense of "humour" is still there, you can type better than before. Keep smiling Bob :d Quote
SteveD Posted February 6, 2013 Author Posted February 6, 2013 cheers bob they say it does strange things to you !!! i seem to have a strange attraction to knitting at the moment and blokes Quote
s2rrr Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 I withdraw my offer of help immediately and I only wear cotton, gayer. bl**** Cameron and his vote you've been brain washed whilst you've been in rehab hospital. Bob :d Quote
