update on rad

I have also have visited Rad and let me tell you he just does not need food and excerse I have no idea who that other person visited but it was not Captain Gammage..

Rad is unable to sit up on his own. He has movement in his right arm but it is limited The left arm has next to no movement .

He is unable to feed himself and that is why Ronnie was trying to feed him some pie. He cannot speak as there is a hole in his throat which constantly flushes out mucas from his lungs, and the only way to try to get some communication from Rad is by placing your fingers over the hole so he can whisper a few words.

Rad has lost all dignity as he is in nappies, and his wife Ronni has to change him, as staff is not available in the hospital.

This man can take no more, his word of the day today was DEMORALISED.
Anyone would think he was scared of flying, just get him out.
