If you can help at all, know that every penny will simply pay either Jason or the shift workers filling in for him. If we end up with any spare because he's been able to return sooner, I'll donate it to charity.

Much love.

Right: this is one of the most unpleasant things I've ever had to do, but I (Dave here) have set up a crowdfunder.

Why? We kept Jason on full pay for 7 weeks, but the spare cash, with shift cover and all the rest of it, has run dry.

He's also been into the brewery now to say hi. Escorted in but nonetheless.

The long and short of it is he won't be back at work behind the bar this year, and it may be longer.

BUT - he's back, he's on the road, and it's good news from the low ebb of how we felt a few weeks ago.

We're about 2 months in since his first UK symptoms now and just around 3 weeks into his much more serious event in France.

A scan, finally, a long wait, some reflection and finally an exciting near 1000 mile Ambulance trip later, he's back and we managed to go for a very lovely meal last night.
