It's been so wet and windy again today - it was raining when we got up and hasn't eased all day.
We went to visit a good friend in hospital this afternoon - he was rushed there on Thursday because of breathing problems and a x-ray has revealed that he had two blood clots forming - in the leg and on one of his lungs - this is not good news and is very worrying...
Bert is 83 and has been a heavy smoker all his life - so no doubt this is also causing concern but he was very upbeat when we saw him today and was breathing unaided, except for the occasional blast from the oxygen mask - he's definitely lost some weight (he wasn't big to begin with) but said that he felt so much better than he did a few days ago
...it was great to see him looking so much better than we thought we'd find him...
