Did anyone watch this programme. Surgeons at the edge of life. It was a Lady down at Adenbrookes. Having an operation to remove blood clots on her lungs. I just find these types of programmes very interesting. Just thought I would mention it. I hope your all keeping as well as possible. Brian

Three people contacted me to tell me it was on, as it is — literally — a subject very close to my heart. I was assessed for that operation by Papworth but they turned me down as they considered my chronic thromboembolic disease was “mild”. Hmm...

I haven’t watched it yet. I will on catch-up.

Fascinating stuff. Only done at Papworth. Jac Naylor did two at Holby City and had me jumping up and down to protest that it she wasn’t allowed to do it.
