Ant11 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 (edited) Hi CarlI follow your progress via your blog and through Rob's updates. Sharing such invaluable information helps so many people either those suffering or the people caring. It seems to be that so many hospitals and GP's don't have a clue regarding PC. An area where we all need to heighten awareness. Loving your video blog and your great sense of humour, puts a smile on my face. Take care and keep fighting and updating us.
