A Stroke Of Luck

My middle son is currently travelling in South America with a couple of mates from Uni. On Saturday morning after a 15 hour bus ride he arrived in Arequipa, Peru and started to feel unwell, he passed out a couple of times and by mid day he was in a clinic, and in the evening was being operated on for acute Appendicitis.

He's had a stroke of luck, as a couple of days earlier he was across the border in Bolivia and had gone off to see a on his own to see some mine and was a day away from basic medical care, never mind a hospital. Thank Christ for Google translate, skype and face time, other wise I'd be in even more of a state than I'm in now.

I'm struggling to find an Albion link here. At first I thought this story was going to feature Gustavo Poyet in some capacity, but even that didn't come to pass. Anyhoo, glad your son is okay.

There is a tenuous link Botty. Mrs Shingle called me to tell me what was going on whilst I was at the game on Saturday. Calde was literally about to score the 4th goal when the effing phone rang. I couldn't here her as the NS was going crazy, and I was shouting whaaat , wos up wi yew, daniel, appendix, wot choo saying.

Blimey, if getting appendicitis in South America is a stroke of luck, I'd hate to have your bad luck










P.S. Hope he gets well soon
