Had the Pneumologist who checked me thouroughly and again I saw a Cardiologist due to the fact that my heart beats were somewhat high. I was pretty much stressed but not of my health issues but those of my older brother in the UK who at almost 82 and cancer of the bones hasn't been given much hope. I can not travel right now but my 73 year old brother is flying out on Tuesday 7th.
Eric and I have been not just brothers but best of mates, always enjoying each other's company. This is life and none can escape the ultimate. .....
A year ago this week I ended up with an umbilical hernia. Kung Fu training (just joking, it was lifting a gas bottle). I half-heartedly emailed the Mediterranean, asking if I could see a consultant, not expecting a result. I got to see one just 4 days later. He arranged for an operation which took place 4 weeks later. That, after Covid and blood tests plus a chest X ray. Throughout everything was excellent and at a cost so ridiculously low you wonder why they bother. On that experience I couldn't fault the medical regime here. Five star.
Milti. As Lordo suggests, if you both have access to the net there are numerous ways you can talk to each other. Video or text.
