at the moment. My mum has fallen and broken her wrist, and now my brother-in-law has had a heart attack :( I haven't had chance to log on here for a while. Just wanted to say hi, and I haven't abandoned the forum.

Thank you for all your good wishes. You're a great bunch [grouphug]
My brother in law is stable and comfortable and should be out of the Coronary Care Unit in the next couple of days. He has definitely had a heart attack. My mum is doing OK - she is just grateful it was her left wrist she broke as she is right handed.

Brother in law still in hospital, having a battery of tests. Looks like there has been significant damage to the heart muscle, but we don't know the full extent yet. He actually looks quite well but is naturally worried (as are we all). I keep on logging on here to get a quick "fix" but haven't had enough time to get on with the trip report. I'll be forgetting what we did if this goes on much longer [msnwink]

Thanks for all your good wishes, it really helps.

I hope that your brother-in-law makes a full recovery Fletch. Even if his MI was a bad one, modern cardiac rehab can ensure good quality of life afterwards. Obviously, compliance with medical advice is important, which I am sure your BiL will know.

Please do not feel guilty about not being able to post your trip reports. Although all of us enjoy reading them, there are more important things in life and you are doing the correct thing in being supportive. All the best.
