No...advising anyone to drink when on 'lots of medication' just isn't funny.

It can be if you take life a little less seriously, forum is for fun too not just facts and warnings.

I don't see this as a 'fun' thread do you Julie?

Re: Doctors - do you trust them?

Thanks for the good wishes everyone, the only permanent result of this horrible incident is that he has lost the hearing in one ear. The blow that he received damaged the cochlea so that the fluid inside it drained off. Apparently the body doesn't replace this fluid, so he is likely to have permanent hearing loss. It could have been so much worse though.

And that MickB is what you have to be thankful for.

Best wishes.

Well if we cant laugh sometimes we would cry Pats I am surprised you don't think like that too, most in caring professions have a robust sense of humour about what they encounter they would be very damaged by some of it if they didn't.
