Re: Digger47
I went to visit Digger today at the rehab Center. His wife was with him and he seemed much happier.
He is off the feeding tube and had his first solid meal earlier today. He is able to stand by himself and can move unaided a very short distance from his bed to a nearby chair. Movement of the right side limbs remains very limited. He is speaking a bit better.
All in all it looks like decent progress.

As of the 23rd May he is back in the UK (a bit of a difficult journey) and he is waiting to go into hospital for an op to prevent a further occurrence.

Re: Digger47
Limited update.
I have been trying to get hold of Digger for sometime now. Phone messages and emails remain unanswered. I reached out to another friend who knows him. The news is that apparently it was touch and go as to whether the airline would allow him on the flight due to his condition at the boarding gate. He was given oxygen on the flight.
It appears as though Digger is no longer in contact with his daughter, the who why where or reason can only be guessed at. I further understand that Digger is under the care of a social work and am sure that they will see him right.
I am trying to get some contact details with the aim of going to see Digger asap before I return back to Hungary.
