Parish Council timely story - and some implications

[Helen Drummond]

It also saves on petrol, childcare, time wasted in travel, etc.

No sooner does John get a bit better, than he takes another step back. 
At 4am this morning they found his oxygen levels alarmingly and dangerously low.
Got him re-oxygenated and so specialists back to looking at what next.
Poor John can’t take a trick.
Keep the prayers up please.
