I’m still waiting for the crown prosecution services to decide to prosecute him, why is it taking so long? I don’t know they have all my medical records all my statements from friends and neighbours so I still wait. I’ve been debating whether to call myself, Ms wait. Ha ha.

Catch up, yesterday I had to go to the orthopaedic hospital in Wales. my left leg has totally gone, I saw the specialist about six weeks ago, he said you needed urgent scan. I had it yesterday. It’s urgent. I need to see the foot consultant. Again urgent I’m still waiting..

unfortunately driving back from the hospital I felt really ill, my head was going round and round so I pulled in stopped the car and waited till I thought a bit better. I went a bit further same thing happened. I felt dreadful.. I went to bit further pulled into a carpark with a pub, thinking I’ll go in get some water go to the toilet I’ll feel better. I got out of the car that’s the last I remember I passed out. next thing I knew there were two ladies by my side who was so kind, I don’t know who you are but you are my angels. they called an ambulance . I was taken to Telford hospital when they believe I’d had a stroke. Thank God it wasn’t if you had seen security as I saw it. You been absolutely petrified. My blood pressure apparently had dropped so dangerously low that’s why I collapsed, I was wretching my tummy hurts. I’m so tired my son Mark my daughter Emma came to be with me and Emma sat with me in the ambulance. I honestly thought I was going to die. My brain just would not kick in the ride to Telford hospital was horrendous. They were kind caring. I did not realise what time it was. When I Looked at the clock. it was 730 in the evening. This happened I think in the afternoon. To feel so much better, so I decided to ask if I could go home., they said wait, if you saw what I saw you’d want to come home. So I discharged. myself. My son brought me home. I see my doctor tomorrow apparently my blood pressure was so low and I got so cold and so hot which made me feel so ill. I did not have a stroke thank God.

Unfortunately, I’m going to need revision knee operation only if there’s enough bone thickness which the surgeon doesn’t think there is I asked him what will happen, he was very kind. He said you’re be in a wheelchair. Just like that.

November, I go to London to High Court for the settlement, the last court case last month he was supposed to present documentation from the Isle of Man and from his son he didn’t. The judge said I’m not even going to attend so that was that, his barrister, my barristers., him and myself waiting, the barrister telephone me and said the judge said she has no intention of attending because he hasn’t given her what she asked for so I asked what next High Court. November

I have to have a new barrister who specialises in trust and settlement. So I have started to look for a new home I wish you all well., and I say to those who have been abused, and are victim to keep strong it’s going on five years now. Keep strong, Liz ,keep faith Liz, that’s what I keep telling myself so I say the same to you God bless you all don’t let them win. God bless Liz 🙏🤗
