[McDreamy]

Omg! How sad! Was he ill?

[2shoes]

shocked by the news

[MesaLoca]

I heard he was ill, how old was he?

[Blandmum]

goodness!

[scorpio1]

he had pneumonia didnt he?

[NAB3wishesfor2008]

Pneumonia

Can't spell it so didn't try before.

He'd been ill for a short time.

[donnie]

I did read that he was ill in a hospital near me ( north London).

Never particularly liked him but I hope he can rest in peace now. Commiserations to his family.

[Rantmum]

Apparently he was only 59. V sad

[southeastastra]

omg!

[McDreamy]

That's really bad, my dad has been in hospital with pneumonia recently. He looked awful and for a while I was really worried about him. Pneumonia is bloody awful, really sad. How old was he?

[FoghornLeghorn]

Blimey
I didn't know he was ill.
Very sad

[NAB3wishesfor2008]

A sharp reminder of how serious pnenmonia can be.

I hope your dad is fuilly recovered, McDreamy.

[stayhomemum]

Im sat here with my jaw on the floor (well not literally)

I cant believe it

[VanillaPumpkin]

Only 59 . Scary really.

[Wisteria]

Sorry, couldn't stand the man, he got right on my tits - didn't know he was ill though and am sorry for his family, 59 is young, same age as my Mum was.

[belgo]

gosh, that's young, and to die from pneumonia - it's easy to forget how serious pneumonia can be

[McDreamy]

He is now thanks NAB. Brought him over here to Cyprus last week for a bit of recuperation! Did him the power of good, but he did scare me for a while!

[belgo]

yes, califrau, it would presumably.

but pneumonia can be serious in healthy people as well.

[noddyholder]

So difficult to successfully treat people with lowered immunity.

[Wisteria]

presumably his system was immune compromised because of the leukaemia so more susceptible.
