He did say he thought Hydrotherapy was a good idea but suggested we go back in about 7 days justto check everything is still progressing and going in the right direction. (and as he didn't charge us for today I can only assume he is doing it to be 100% sure which is absolutely fantastic in my book
)
Best of luck....I am really so chuffed for you Stuart and Ben....I really am. Hope we can meet up in July for lunch xxxxxxxxx
