    Sir Johns son was a great example to all of us, about saying what needs to be said, before our loved ones pass away. The way he had a feeling things may not go their way, so he told him, again, what he meant to him, and hugged and kissed him, while he was still alive, made me proud of him. It's often harder for men to be affectionate, but they taught us how to have no regrets of things left unsaid!

    My Nan just recently had a bowel blockage. They told us to expect the worst. She didn't make it home... she ended up in a care home as it was time, she couldn't live on her own anymore, but she made it through the blockage and is doing better. She has Parkinson's and is getting around the nursing home with her mobility frame and doing better than we expected. ❤

    So I started watching this and another UK medical show about 2 years ago. Back story my dad and grandad both had Aortic aneurysm. My grandad died in 65. My Dad survived his surgury,but it was touch and go.
    So,I have high blood pressure and PVCs. Under control until 2 years ago. At the time I kept seeing episodes about AAAs. Repeatedly. Soon after I went to doc with what I thought were just PVC symptoms. They sent me to ER where, bless the doctor,he listened when I told him my family history. Even though it's uncommon in women they did a CT and surprise a Thoracic Aortic aneurysm 4.6 centimeters. I am not at the point of surgury, but I swear if not for those episodes I would never have mentioned my family AAA history. But it just kept nagging at me. Maybe coincidence,but it saved my life for now.

I’ve sat in many ER’s over the years, and like John ,never expecting it would be the last time I would speak to him. His birthday was last week, and it hit me particularly hard. Dad would have been 89.

    I lost a man that was my "adopted" grandfather. I was a child, and really respected and liked him. He had always been kind. In his early 80s, he was always hard at it, doing the work needed to run a small hay farm. He was doing a job he had done for decades, chopping the wood for the stove. He felt a sudden pain through his gut. His wife got him to the hospital, where he was diagnosed with that aneurysm. There was time for some of his family to get there. Johnny Martin passed away surrounded by his children and wife. He was genuinely loved and respected. No title needed.
    Rhys is yummy.

    So sad. About 20 years ago, I saw this thing on Oprah where she advised to tell your mom and dad thank you for all they did for you. So I wrote up a bunch of thank yous, cut them into strips and put them in a pretty box for my mom for Mother's Day. She cried when she started reading them because they were all things like, Thank you for not telling anyone I peed my pants, Thank you for giving me Ginger Ale when I was sick, Thank you for letting me sit outside on the steps to eat my dinner, Thank you for teaching me how to make chocolate pudding, etc. If you look back on your life, there are HUNDREDS of things you can mention. I had about 75 different items. Now that she's gone, I still have the box, which she saved, of course. I'm telling you, I'm SO glad I did that. So if you want to tell your mom or dad how much you appreciate them, do this. It'll be good for you and good for them.

I had a compound fracture of my left femur and slipped into a coma. My mom said that the last thing she heard me say is (screaming)” You dumb doctor don’t you know that that’s my broken leg” hahahhaa I had moxie . I also had a male nurse and it blew my little mind that he was a he. Nurse Scott, it’s been all these years but I remember you.

    My condolences to Johnathan’s sons. I’m sorry but the surgeons waited way too long to take him to the theater.

      The patient came in 6pm, bloods and ct done, passed on to surgeons, with surgery likely around 9pm (narrator says "that evening"). St George's is a major trauma centre so it would not be unusual for CEPOD/emergency theatre(s) to be in use round the clock. Pretty good going I think.

      @@lindajohnson7838 I've also been going into heart surgery not knowing if I'd make it. Had my children or my husband told me something like that it would have upset me greatly. This isn't about "telling the truth" it's about encouraging your loved one before a life-threarening procedure. According to the son, his father would wake up every day and say that he was happy to be alive, that's proof that Sir John didn't want to die. God knows how those words impacted him going into the surgery and it wouldn't surprise me if he didn't make it because of his emotional state after those words. Our emotions also contribute to our recovery, that's why family members are encouraged to talk to people who are in coma or extremely ill, bring them music, etc.

    Why does the consultant keep touching his greasy hair? He needs a haircut and a shower for sure.

    What kind of father allows his kids to start drinking at 8 years old? If that happened here in America. Your kids would be taken away. This makes me so 😡😡

      It is different in Europe. I do believe it 16 when you can drink beer. I do not drink. But My sister and my family have lived over there for years. They have different standards.

      It happens in US more often than we believe. Sadly it isn’t always discovered until the person is an alcoholic and 17 or 25 years old.

      With the rate of poor,homeless and crime in the U.S.A., I hardly think an educated, titled European family feeding their children a well rounded palette is hardly something to get upset about. Focus on the important things like the child sex trafficking rampant in the U.S.A.

      My boys usually got watered wine (sometimes with soda) with dinners from toddlerhood (Australia). We called it ‘kids wine’. Neither of them drink to excess and know how to handle their alcohol. If we visited people for dinner, we took nonalcoholic wine drinks with us so they weren’t shocked or put on the spot with their own children. Once they were 15-16 they were allowed a full strength wine with dinner or a light mixed spirit. I always considered a learning experience for them and educational. Better parents to introduce and control it, then the youngsters going nuts about it once they are legal. Both of them overindulged with friends on a couple of occasions and then had to deal with the hangovers and the parental disappointment. It didn’t occur more than a couple of times with either of them.
