Hi Dotsie...
No I didn't have surgery, but was in an 'oxygen helmet' in 'reanimation' for seven days before being moved to the Intensive Care Unit. I had 'double pneumonia' too, so that didn't help either.

But I'm fine (sort of) now - though I'll never be 'fit' again. But I'm ALIVE - that's the main thing - and life IS wonderful!
