My Dad had a suspected stroke last week so I'm with him in Dumfries Infirmary whilst they conduct a few tests. Apparently it's going to be a couple of hours so I bought a book. Cheers @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com. - ThreadSky

I hope he is ok. Great book.

cripleh.bsky.social•556 days ago

He's been lucky, damage not as bad as first feared. Been told to take it easy for a while by consultant and family!

littlefluffyclouds.bsky.social•557 days ago

That is actually my favourite of Neil’s books.

bookishchas.bsky.social•557 days ago

Great choice! I hope your dad is ok.

cripleh.bsky.social•556 days ago

He's recovering. It could have been much worse than it was.

Thank you.

bookishchas.bsky.social•556 days ago

I’m so glad to hear it’s not worse. Wishing him a speedy recovery.

I hope you hear good news about your dad - and Neverwhere is one of my favorite books.

wobblingoblin.bsky.social•556 days ago

Wish your dad the best.

cripleh.bsky.social•556 days ago

I have, thank you.

i love this book. hope your father is on the mend.

cripleh.bsky.social•556 days ago

He will be, damage not as bad as it could have been. He's quite cheery now the cause is known.

Thank you for your regards.

I hope it all turns out okay

cripleh.bsky.social•556 days ago

Much better than it could have been. He's surprisingly chipper now he knows what caused it.

unabashedvo.com•557 days ago

Great book!

lawsonwrites.bsky.social•557 days ago

A great book, I read it twice.

neilhimself.neilgaiman.com•557 days ago

Hang in there. And I hope he is okay.

cripleh.bsky.social•556 days ago

Blood clot caused by an irregular heart beat. Damage hasn't been as bad as it could have been. Feeling on the left side will return in time. Blood thinners on prescription. He's quite chipper now he knows the cause.

Many thanks for your kind regards. Much appreciated.

You're nice Neil.

I had a stroke that resulted in double vision for like a year . If your dad has that problem tell him he can still read if he closes one eye . At least for me that made the images single

cripleh.bsky.social•556 days ago

I'll let him know.

rachelsl.bsky.social•557 days ago

Sending you so much love. I hope your Dad is okay. ❤️

cripleh.bsky.social•556 days ago

Damage not as bad as it could have been thankfully. He's happier now he knows what the problem was.

rachelsl.bsky.social•556 days ago

Oh, um so glad to hear it. ❤️

gradacious.bsky.social•557 days ago

I’m curious to hear what you think. Good tidings to your Dad and your family. I hope he is well.

cripleh.bsky.social•556 days ago

Read the first thirty pages or so. Very much enjoyable. I can see me rooting for Richard.

Dad could have got it worse than he did, he's happier now he knows the cause.

bwoodford.bsky.social•557 days ago

Excellent book. Wish your dad well.

cripleh.bsky.social•556 days ago

I have, thank you.
