'I wouldn't be doing this unless I thought I might need it, but many people have been asking what they can do to help. I don't need groceries, or food, or anything like that but what I do need is reassurance that Nick will have the support and care he needs both during and after this slow and difficult recovery.
Nick was diagnosed with Legionella Pneumonia, a severe infection they are tracing, but we may never know where or how he got it. As many of you know, Nick was intensely careful with his health after a hell few years spent changing his life to get healthy. He also lost his father in March which he, his family and I, are still recovering from. That makes this especially unfair and difficult to take.
Please....only give if and what you can. I know what it's like to have very little and don't altogether feel comfortable asking for more now that we have a bit more than we used to.
However - I know some of you want to help and I am expecting this to be a slow recovery. Soon I may need groceries, petrol or time off work to attend appointments, see specialists and to seek whatever mental and physical health support he needs. Thankyou.
Wishing you a speedy recovery Nick. xx
