Well I should have posted on here last week about the Solo Jacobite campaign I’m running but I’ve been sent a real curved ball.
So last Sunday morning wife enjoy a little morning walk with the dog, had a coffee and headed home to read paper, Early afternoon felt like someone drove a knife down my neck to between shoulder blades
It made general movement painful and as we men do put it down to latest virus, by Wednesday pain in neck and shoulders had gone but it was painful to walk, by Thursday I couldn’t walk and here I am in James Cook
I apparently have contracted a pretty rare bacterial virus it has created a number of abscesses along the spine and inflamed a number of membranes between discs. It’s also in my blood so causing problems with BP.
Fortunately James Cook has both spinal and infectious units under one roof so I guess I’m in the right place.
So at the moment the spinal team are meeting to decide if they should operate to relieve the pressure or just let the antibiotics work their way through
Best case I’m going to be here 5-6 weeks
So watch this space I will do some progress reports when there some to report
Be careful of those Sunday walks you never know what’s lurking
Take care.

Oh no! I hope you make a speedy recovery and that the pain bit is quickly brought under control. As always, hurrah for the National Health Service.
The latest Wargames Soldiers & Strategy is out in Smith’s, a good issue themed on the rise of Napoleon, that might make some good company for you during your hospital stay 🙂
Also, if you have okay internet, there is the Warning Order magazine, a free download with a load of back issues, which might also entertain.

I was shocked when you told me the other day Graham but didn't realise it was this serious requiring such a long spell of recovery. On the positive side you are in the right place and by the time you come out we shall be closer to spring :) All the very best.

Sorry to hear this and I hope you have a speedy recovery. I'm going to be careful myself of 'walks' in future!
Bloody hell! That sounds terrible! I hope you have a swift and trouble free recovery and if you are stuck there for 5-6 weeks I hope it passes quickly and you are soon back on your feet and rolling dice.
All the best and take care.

Will they let you have a mobile paint station during your stay? I wish you all the very best and a speedy recovery.
Graham you must have been very naughty in a previous life given your lack of luck. Stay strong and try and be positive. I dont know if you got Charles Grants latest tome, but you get a bit of a positive mention in the book. Im certain they'll have you on your feet soon.
Wow! Graham... so sorry to hear this. Hope you are keeping as comfortable as possible and are being well looked after. You will be up and about before you know it... there's figures to be painted and games to be played. Take care my friend. Meantime, rest, read books, watch hobby videos and podcasts. Good for the soul. Best rgds. Phil
This is a real shaker, Graham - glad you are in good hands, and hope they get you sorted out quickly. I'll be thinking about you - try to get a good rest.
Bugger me Graham but you’ve had a bad trot lately. Hope you have a speedy recovery mate. All the best, Mark.
