Thanks chaps. My epiglottis decided to weld itself shut and I was on the point of being unable to breathe due to the ensuing swelling.

I was admitted on Wednesday night and I was asked whether I had swallowed any foreign objects or irritated my vocal cords in any way in the last few days... Bitter neighbour's voice went up a few tones with his visitor  when he heard me showing the docs the video my son took of us celebrating Herohane's goal on Saturday.

Doc was unable to distinguish between son's nearly broken voice (he's 14) and my teenish screeching (I'm 45) and made me promise not to celebrate too wildly next week.

My neighbour here on the ENT ward was born in 1937 and remembers the old wooden north stand, Trevor Ford, Danny Blanchflower and has other great stories. He hadn't said a word to me in nearly 24hrs on the ward until I emerged from the shower in my 1957 FA cup replica shirt, now I can't keep him quiet! He was at the game, first time he ever went to London.

It's a small and lovely world.

If you want, PM which hospital you are in. Depending one which site, one of the Chaplains might be able to tell you an inside Villa tale or two that will cheer you up. Hope everyone gets better, I’m at the point of needing to see someone too, voice lost again, not before i’d confessed to my boss it was croaky again after VP and shouting at the telly.

You have mail.

If you lose the ability to swallow get to the quack asap. Epiglottitis (what I have),  can easily be overlooked as a
simple case of tonsillitis, which was my initial diagnosis.

Epiglottitis can potentially be fatal if not caught quickly, so don't hold back on going to the quack.

I make this public in all our interests, as I'm sure we're not alone in sore-throatedness.

Thank you Dave, and also In Exile, whose wishes I missed at the tail end of the previous page.

Now I'm able to swallow again (yes, haha 😂) I'm hoping to be allowed home tomorrow.

Apologies Rodders I’d forgotten our previous chats, and so you weren’t admitted in Brum. I shall indeed get my throat checked out more formally, not good trying not to cheer. Grand to hear of the grown family and more little Villans, maybe see you in the family section sometime all being well (though with D-day next month might have to wait a while my end!)

Wishing you all all the best.

Thanks PT :)

I've replied to your PM, for which many thanks. Great to read of your own impending arrival on another thread :) the growing group of wee Villans is a marvellous thought.

Get well very soon!

My elder lad loves it in the Upper Holte, when the younger is of an age to accompany us we'll let you know and hopefully meet up in the family section... In the Premier League we hope!

All best wishes to you, yours,
and all brothers and sisters in claret and blue who read this post in fact. It's a wonderful family to be a part of.

My dad's got hours or days to live. This has cheered me up immensely. There are football fan sites and there is Heroes and Villains.

Best wishes, Mike. Went through it 9 years ago.

You are there for your Mom and Dad, that's the main thing.
