The British Steelies Society

Hi all - I was devastated to have to miss the NESGF but just wanted to use this space to thank everyone who sent good wishes for my 3-ple bypass operation last week. It went pretty well judging by being back home with paracetamol on the third day - Thursday 5pm op. finished; 1day to Friday, in High Dependency Unit: 2days to Saturday, recovery ward; 3days to Sunday evening - lift home!
Progress from now will have to be at the correct pace, I know; but overall I can only gasp in awe at the NHS staff who can produce such an outcome.

Yes, Tony, it's inconceivable how quickly they can turn these big procedures round. An acquaintance of mine went through the same op and, since his recuperation, feels like a new man, gigging regularly and with a spring in his step. So, here's wishing you the same outcome.

And I join you in, awe filled, gasping at the care and skills of the NHS staff, especially in the straightened situation they have to cope with these days.

All the best, Sir

Hi Tony, very sorry to hear you were in need of a bypass but also very pleased to hear the operation went according to plan!
I was also gutted to be unable to attend the NESGF, but will do my best to get along to one of the regular gatherings before the next one - and hope to be able to meet you there
Best wishes for a speedy and full recovery,
Sid

All the very best Tony, NHS give the best service ever when we really need them, dont I know.
Onwards and upwards pal but steadily.
Dave.

Keep your pecker up Tone. Donny

All my very best Tony, hope your recovery is fast.
