I was moaning about my aches and pains earlier, so my mate sent me this:

I sometimes moan about my aches & pains, but my 85 year old father in law has just had his left leg amputated just below the hip and the poor old bugger is still in agony over a week later, despite high doses of very strong pain meds.
Youngest brother in law (51) had cardiac arrest in December and woke up a month later with brain damage.
He was in a recovery place for a while but they have now sent him home to fend for himself as they cant help him.
He is away with the fairies, his finances have gone into freefall, he will never work or drive again, and hes convinced theres nothing wrong with him.
It can only end in tears.
He has a 1983 Porsche 911, A Focus RS, VW camper, Newish Discovery, and newish Transit for work, all sat on the drive but hes convinced he has five other cars but someone stole them while he was in hospital.
Tbh, he would have been better off not waking up.
Makes you count your blessings.
