<p><strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black; font-size: 7.5pt;">Thanks for taking the time to visit my Just Giving page.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black; font-size: 7.5pt;">I have recently been in hospital and was eventually diagnosed with Acute Pancreatitis.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black; font-size: 7.5pt;">It was the most painful experience of my life. The severe pain in my abdomen was unbearable and it took a lot of morphine, antibiotics and tramadol to eventually ease the pain.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black; font-size: 7.5pt;">I was told by four different doctors that I was very lucky to have survived this ordeal and very lucky to still be alive.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black; font-size: 7.5pt;">I was unaware of this disease until my visit to hospital and believe more people should be made aware of the condition.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black; font-size: 7.5pt;">I have made a full recovery but still have the disease.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black; font-size: 7.5pt;">I will never be able to drink alcohol again but that seems a small price to pay when I consider how close I came to death.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black; font-size: 7.5pt;">The care and treatment I received by doctors and nurses in Bronglais hospital, Aberystwyth was fantastic.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black; font-size: 7.5pt;">I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the staff for their help and kindness.</span></strong></p>
