George - have you been seen by someone who knows what the problem is and, if so, what diagnosis/treatment have they given? It seems to be dragging on, although in the UK you'd probably still be on a gurney in a corridor.

Well the main doc didn't even turn up yesterday! His sidekick said I had to hurry up and get the MRI. I said, "I did - at five yesterday afternoon"

 

Things are lurching from bad to worse as George's wife, Anne, has fractured her patella and is in Casualty 6 floors below him  
Talk about upsetting the Gods!!

Goodness........it never rains but it pours.

Strewth, mate! Please pass on my good wishes.

I trust the Bealettes have been mobilised.

Cheers,

Chris

Unfortunately the local one has to work and the other two are partying at Noosa Heads in QLD!

Sorry to hear about your good wife's misfortune George, we never did get to meet at York but I was fortunate enough to meet your good lady with Mick. Give her my best wishes, both of you get well soon.

That is a wicked rumour

Seriously though, I feel a TV series coming along about dear old George 

 
   Gosh George hope you're families luck changes soon 
  stay safe regards Derek

Ouch, just seen this. Get well soon George!

They operate on Mrs B on Tuesday, so she gets her own room!

Oh dear, perhaps this thread ( @Newportnobby ) should be retitled "Get well soon, Ann and George".

PS there was a comedy series called "George and Mildred" but thankfully our George is a completely different kettle of fish...

Just when Anne thought she'd have some peace for a few days/weeks, she's fetched up in the same place!

Get well Anne and George.........

Anne has had her kneecap pinned and has been discharged.............to her home where there's no one else there
Meanwhile George has contracted some form of bug, the details of which I'll not mention just in case you've recently eaten

Get well both!
