Subject: RE: Saltburn Folk Festival.
Not quite over - temporarily curtailed and at home at the moment.
I was working /in hospital last year in Azerbaijan because of a freak happening.
I trapped a tiny blood vessel in my neck , one which ghoes to the inner ear and the brain.
I couldn't walk ,totally lost my balance and was in a hospital bed for a week and should have stayed longer, but I'm one of those cissies who needs to be home when he's ill, and besides the Russian and Turkish TV in hospital was sending me batty.
Ray I'll say it before you do (Nutty is too gracious) - I never was a well balanced person in the first place !!!!!
Horrible thing to happen - but I appreciate , not half as bad as some people have to put up with in life .
God willing I've made a decent recovery and now I'm one of a myriad of people who needs to start the day with a junior aspirin.
The Consultant Neurologist , tells me the commonest occurence of this problem, happens when people are parking their cars ( looking over their shoulders ) - it really is THAT easy.

Cheers Betsy.
