One year ago today I had a heart attack which would have killed me without the magnificent help of the NHS. I am still grateful beyond words.
Well, that was a surprising. Currently in Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospitsl after needing emergency surgery after a heart attack while walking the dogs yesterday morning. Can’t praise the NHS staff enough. I owe them my life. Give them that pay rise!
