Greetings from the Raspberry Ripple

Hi guys, nearly 5 months on from my spinal bend , I am up on my feetand taking baby steps with the aid of 1 crutch and the physios hand. 195 pots and now in rehab unit. Should be walking by Xmas.
Thanks for all sms messages and emails of support. I cant log on to Y-D so someone might post this over for me. FWIW DAN insurance delivered big time. They did exactly what they say on the tin.
Private room in clinic in Menorca.
Air ambulancehome.
Cost of all pot trips covered.
Cant recommend them enough, so get DAN cover if you dont have it already.I have access to pc here in spinal clinic, so hope tolook in regularly.
All the best
Jack

Good to see a post from you Jack, keep up the good work.

Looks like you have your own seat in the chamber hope it had a good view.

Haven't used the Heser yet, just waiting for Huggins to take me diving.
