speech

It is impossible to put into words my gratitude to my friends, family and blog followers for your support over the last few months.

I also have nothing but praise for the staff at the UHNS especially Wendy Robson in ENT who has been our guardian angel throughout.

I am very lucky to have such wonderful friends and family.

I am also very lucky to have found, and be able to afford the Vital Stim treatment which has made such a difference over the last couple of weeks.

With this in mind we are going to be doing as much as possible to promote the treatment with the ultimate goal of making it available to everyone on the NHS. As rare a condition as it is, the non-ability to eat and drink shouldn't be something that a priveliged few can afford to have put right. 

I am living proof that this simple and relatively cheap treatment can work and make a massive difference to the wellbeing and way of life of both patients and their families.

The treatment is being launched in Stafford tomorrow and I am going to talk for 5 minutes about the amazing results we have seen in the last 2 weeks, this will hopefully be the start of the widespread acceptance that it needs.

I will let you know how we get on.
