Message passed to me by Catherine Biddle. Brian was rushed to Southampton General Hospital this morning, after having a heart attack while driving home from work. He has a dislocated and fractured hip, a bruised liver, a few broken ribs and some fractures to the spine and leg bruising. When we last spoke, he was going into theatre.
At the moment, Catherine and Dawn are with him. Transport for today is being provided by a family friend, who is also looking after the two younger children.
Brian is expected to be in intensive care for a few days at least, and visiting will be very limited. Please contact Dawn to arrange it, but not today - tomorrow at the earliest. Please do NOT just show up at either house or hospital, that stresses Dawn out, as we know, and she has more than enough stress at the moment.
Dawn may be able to post more detail tonight, but no promises.
