“I thought I was fairly fit. Obviously I wasn’t.

“I was only skiing a fortnight before I had the stroke. I was doing꧙ what I shouldn’t have been doing - drinking, not eating enough, dehydrated, not drinking waꦺter, smoking.

“Everybody kno⛎ws I smoke a lot, but I haven’t had a fag 🎃for the last seven weeks!

“Hopefully I will get fit now.”
