I am currently recuperating at home from Covid-19 after being taken as an emergency by ambulance  to Kingston Hospital on 22 March.  I then spent thee days in Intensive Care, before spending a further seven days recovering in Blythe Ward. During this illness, I lost 15 Kilos in weight and had very low oxygen levels.

"Covid-19 is a horrible condition and affects people in many different ways.  I had it very badly and had low levels of oxygen especially when I was in Intensive Care.

Fortunately, I think I am recovering, and would like to thank the ambulance team and the staff at Kingston Hospital for saving my life.  I cannot overestimate the kindness and skill of everyone I encountered at the Hospital.  They were simply magnificent. 

Across the country, carers and medical staff have been fantastic, but I have decided to give something back by raising money for Kingston Hospital.  My initial target is £1000 and I hope to emulate Captain Tom Moore and raise more...although I think the tens of millions he has raised will be rather beyond me."
