Thanks for writing this. What a story. You are a hero for surviving all that.

And that sister of yours was a gorgeous baby.

Amazing story, Prof.

Many thanks for sharing this with us

What Dmitri and Icy said.

Gosh that jacket contraption sounds nasty! Medical science has come a long way, hasn't it.

Hero is the word, whether you like it or not mate.

All the best

thank you my friends

never be sad or down with your ailments, as stated! some have far worse and would swap anytime for a lesser one than they have

Mate,you've been through a living nightmare,and you have kept your mental faculties intact...

I should learn from this...I hope I can.

You're a champion...

Prof - you have always had my admiration since I got to know you recently. But now I understand a little more and I really admire your strength of character - your eyes in that photo show a really brave lad sitting there, proud of his little sister! Thank you for writing this.

thank YOU dear ladyin the end, I can only be who I amand I'm only glad the "joker" side prevailed

I knew you were a man of courage with nerves of steel but I hadn't realised you had an iron backbone too!

Thanks for writing that Prof. You really are an example to us all.
