Dear RevRog

What an uplifting and inspiring post and written by your fair hand? Bet that amazingly supportive wife was over your shoulder watching you.

Fantastic news about your recovery on both parts, the heart and the prostrate. The pair of you have certainly been through the mill and I can only pray that the experiences have brought you even stronger together.

Well done on getting a place on the rehab group, unfortunately I could not join one until this pacemaker settles in { whatever that means }

I cannot understand how Spurs could raise an eyebrow let alone your heart rate LOL { this is coming from a Millwall supporter } but whatever raises it thank God it can now cope with it, just don’t hold your breath !

Take care and please pass on my best to your wife.

Congratulations on your positive medical news, long may it continue!

I also walk in the New Forest, so if I see someone wearing a Spurs scarf I'll give a cheery wave.

Good luck!

Capsaicin cream is supposed to help with nerve pain. It burns a bit when you put it on. It's made from capsicums. Never helped me but I do have rather more problems with spinal pain.

I am so happy to hear that you are feeling/doing better! That truly warms my heart. I was one of the many people who replied to your good wife’s posts and who said my prayers for your recovery. It sounds like you are going strong at up to 10,000 steps per day. You make me realize that I need to step up my own exercise routine and you have given me new incentive to walk more.

I pray that you continue to get stronger each day also, please say “hello” to your wife and I hope that she is doing well!
