I too must thank the medical profession for still being here. I nearly died from pneumonia 16 months ago. That on top of COPD, a heart problem, thyroid problem, high blood pressure and a suspected progression towards diabetes means that, if I'd lived in an earlier age, I wouldn't be - living, that is.

I'm grateful to medical science for keeping me alive and for letting me have my mum, who lived to age 91 with all of the above and more, for so long. I'm grateful for the discovery of penicillin, the new drug, as it was then, that saved my brother's life in 1944. I wish there had been a drug to cure my husband of Meningococcal Septicaemia but there wasn't. I am fully behind all the research to find a drug that will cure it.
