Default ANOTHER " A Moment of Silence...... "
In reply to Mike ) who wrote this in
, I, Marvo, say :

With regards to my Blue Badge. If you would like to take the
Arthritis away and the pain killers, then I would be DELIGHTED to
give up my Blue Badge. Until them, just to please you, I will ammend
my statement to "No Johannes/Arthur, regular check ups by my Doctor,
(a proper one not a self acclaimed one) and a healthy and full life
style subject to my Arthritis and False teeth".

Interestingly, my dad, great-uncle Marvo, had terrible arthritis some years
ago and was destined for a wheelchair. He moved to the South West (Cornwall)
where the consultant (at Truro hospital) prescribed him the same as he had
before (Brufen I think) but in a dose fit for an elephant. There were tins
of the stff around the house, great big tins the size of a baked bean tin. I
think they were purply-coloured "bomb" pills, like M&Ms. He rattled when he
walked.

He got better after not many months and is now still pretty much free of it.
He now has to park in car parks.

He still has false teeth though :-)

I don't know if this might be of help?
