    John, thank you for taking the time to update everyone, when you've got so much going on in your lives. Neither of you needed this complication after such a rough year.
    Sending all of our love to you both and praying that Mandy makes a good full recovery. She's being well looked after, but you look after yourself too. Lots of love from Fiona and David x

    Also, you guys gave me the idea of getting Jon to edit the footage I have that I’m already behind on from the last couple of weeks so it gives Jon something to occupy him while he recovers 👊🏼 nice one! 😆

    FFS! You couldn’t write it!! Sorry to hear Mandy is in hospital, it’s the last thing she needs. As you say it’s quite ironic that you have literally swapped places with Tash & John. Not great about the van either but you can worry about that once Mandy is well. Look after yourself and each other xx

    Have just been through this with my mum. She was in hospital for 9 weeks in the end, she got a second infection though. The initial infection/sepsis took about 3 weeks of antibiotics to sort out. It's a slog for everyone to get through and incredibly tiring. We are in Devon and I hope your hospital experience is better. I assume you might be in either the same hospital we were or the next one down in Cornwall. Everywhere is stretched so thin it was hard work just on that front. It's a lot to recover from.

    Hi John sorry to hear your news about Mandy and Sepsis. Was in a situation like this myself 2 years ago when returning to the uk from turkey in our motorhome . We were in the french alps near the swiss boarder when i was taken into the local hospital after 2 weeks in the itu my partner had to arrange a private air ambulance at our own cost to get us back to the uk .Where i spent another 2 months in Royal Stoke hospital . Am sad to say a lot of head scratching by the medics and a large amount of iv antibiotics an operation i returned to the outside world . The whole experience has had a physical and emotional effect on both of us . Life is not the same and our goals have changed but its still a good life just not the one we had planned .There was talk of wheel chairs etc but with time i can walk again . i am sure with Mandy s mindset she can get the most out of life . Dont loose hope take it one day at a time with luck you will both be on the road together soon but one van might be the best option for a while. From what i have read and experienced about Sepsis is that there is no roadmap each experience is unique from complete recovery to not being here at all . Best wishes to both of you and anyone else on the same journey
    Regards Mike

    Been following you both (vlogs that is )from afar for the past year. Oh dear how awful this all is for Mandy and yourself too. Wishing Mandy the speediest of recoveries so she can be back enjoying Vanlife very soon. My partner and i are of similar age and time in our life as are you two where we hope to enjoy travel, do lots ,make plans and spending lots of time together. She too is a cancer survivor twice over now and what a battler to boot (breast and bowel) We live together now and support each other through thick and thin - ggod times and bad times day by day and have to be sensible in our future travel plans as she needs ongoing monthly hospital visits for blood test and injections . Most important thing right now is Mandy having your loving support and benefitting the best treatment and care available via NHS. Its also vital you are being supported John from your channel of network of friends and family. Chin up mate and always make the most of every day. Makes my shitty painful shingles over past 6 weeks and still rearing its ugly head lots for some more weeks to come due to spasmodic nerve endings pain and crazy lack of sleep and temporarily housebound feel like a touch of flu in comparison. Finally hope you get your van engine sorted soon too. Regards Gray
