I’m very pleased to say I am now out of hospital finally. It’s been a long road and there’s still a little way for me to go yet until I am completely recovered. I just wanted to say a massive, massive thank you to everyone who sent messages wishing me well and a speedy recovery. I was overwhelmed by all the support and kindness you have shown over the last few weeks. Friends, family, followers and subscribers and not forgetting every member of NHS staff who looked after me you’re all completely amazing thank you. #hospital #operation #pacemaker #heartcondition #dextrocardia #bristolheartinstitute #bristolroyalinfirmary #nhs #surgery #amazing #lucky #britishheartfoundation (at Chippenham, Wiltshire)

Just uploaded my lasted YouTube video to my channel. I hope this does get a lot of views and likes, not only for my own sake but more importantly the reason behind the video was to raise awareness of adult congenital heart disease and what it’s like to live with a heart condition. There are links in the description box on the video to the British heart foundation website and also the Bristol heart institute website. Both do amazing work and both are grotesquely underfunded. If you can donate please do. If not then please like and share the video. Thank guys. #bristolheartinstitute #bristolroyalinfirmary #heartcondition #dextrocardia #pacemaker #surgery #britishheartfoundation #congentialheartdefect #congenitalheartdisease #confessionsofanundertaker #undertaker #mortician #morticianlife #hospital #visit #charity #youtube #youtuber #vlog #vlogger #blog #blogger #influencer (at Chipping Sodbury, South Gloucestershire)

Decisions, decisions! What to have off of the ward menu today? The caviar, champagne and smoked salmon bilinis are off. So it looks like I’ll have lasagne!! #hislordship #eccentric #aristocracy #aristocrat #lord #lordsodbury #earlofsodbury #hospital #NHS #bristolheartinstitute #dinner #menu #lasagne #eccentricgent #gentry #landedgentry (at Bristol, United Kingdom)

It’s really frustrating to be classed as a key worker and not being able to go to work to do your bit to help in the battle against Coronavirus. Three months away from my work in funeral service and my work as a chaplaincy volunteer at the BHI. However there is a little light at the end of the tunnel. I was contacted by the chaplaincy asking if I wanted to be part of the chaplaincy outreach programme giving over the phone support to NHS workers in the community? Obviously I jumped at the chance, just waiting for more details to come through? #NHS #nhsheroes #supportournhs #stayathome #savelives #covid19 #coronavid19 #coronavirus #chaplain #chaplaincy #chaplainlife #clergy #clergyman #volunteer #keyworker #oldcatholic #liberalcatholic #reformedcatholic #OCAC #minister #church #chapel #churchminister #bristol #heartinstitute #funeralservice #funeralprofessional #bristolhospital #bristolheartinstitute #bristolroyalinfirmary (at Bristol, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_KZvszjk31/?igshid=rc2dsnmtzec1

I haven’t written a poem in ages as poetry needs inspiration. So being in hospital this last week I’ve had a lot of inspiration. So at 6am this morning I wrote this. I hope our like it? The hospital ward. Beep, beep, beep goes the heart monitoring machine. Not a doctor, nurse or care assistant to be seen? Beep, beep, beep it goes again. He lies there awake thinking when will this end? Early morning starts and blood pressure checks not welcome procedures but the doctors and nurses are doing their best. Staff shortages means breakfast is late but have no fear they’re only on ward eight. The food is quite good for a hospital ward. Usually quite awful and atrociously poor. Corn flakes for breakfast washed down with tea. Medication follows much needed desperately. Lunch time arrives with goodies on the trolley what shall he have nothing too jolly? Juice to start followed by pasta a fruit crumble to finish not such a disaster. Tea time arrives a welcome final meal. Soup to start to begin a hearty meal. Roast beef to follow smothered in gravy it goes down a treat what a smashing deal. Ice cream for afters only vanilla will do. With food done and dusted all for the day back into bed he returns his prayers he will pray. The bleeping has finally stopped but things do not end there. A bed bath is order where all is laid bare. Demoralised with despair he gets undressed, carbolic soap doesn’t smell the best. The rest of the patients go about their business. Blood tests, and chest exams all a constant pest. Sat back in bed all scrubbed and pressed he lays there thinking all of this for a dodgy chest. #dextrocardia #heartcondition #hospitallife #britishheartfoundation #confessionsofanundertaker #hospital #nhs #poem #poet #poetry #writer #blogger #influencer #blog #blogging #author #health #nationalhealthservice #bristolhospital #bristolheartinstitute #bristolroyalinfirmary #ward #hospitalward (at Bristol Royal Infirmary)
