UPDATE

MESSAGE TO ALL REGARDING CHRIS’ ILLNESS.

Dear all,

Hello everyone. Firstly, please accept my apologies for this standard letter. I would normally not even contemplate the idea, as you all know, but due to the huge number of emails received so far wishing me all the best, it is the only way to properly address everyone equally, with regard to recent events.

On Wednesday 17th December, 11:30a.m., I was admitted to Addenbrookes hospital after completely losing the ability to use my legs. The staff in A + E were fantastic, and got me in quickly, then did blood tests and got me into a bed. A consultant soon arrived and told me that she had never seen or heard of this happening before (to a normally physically fit patient) and that the case would need to be discussed with more experienced chief consultants.

By the evening of the 17th it had been determined that the route cause of my condition was unknown. That is to say that they suspected, probably, the lower torso disablement to be caused by some kind of serious virus (similar in effect to that of Human Immuno Defficiency Virus—H.I.V—though not in any way a result of a sexually transmitted infection, but rather as result of the body being confused about how to fix itself, like an Auto-immune disease). This meant that they could not tell me if I would regain use of my legs, or not, as they had never dealt with this precise turn of events before.

On the 18th, Chris was scheduled for neuro-testing—M.R.I scans and lumber-puncture (to examine cerebral-fluid for signs of brain-disease), but when the time came it was decided, by the chief consultant, that the lower torso disablement was probably not caused by brain disease. It was then agreed by all that nothing could actually be done to alleviate this, and that if it would get better, it would have to be by the body fighting back and fixing itself.

The 19th was a very confusing and upsetting day for the whole family; communication problems among the nurses meant that no-one knew if I would need further neurological testing or not.
Obviously, much more happened and there were other complications, but the result was that the hospital deemed it ok for me to return home that evening.

Just before I left Addenbrookes, results came back and concluded that there was no evidence of brain-disease, H.I.V, brain-damage or disease of the spine. A final diagnosis was made: all 17 illnesses I experienced in the last three years could be attributed to a result of this ‘as of yet unknown—and unclassified by science—virus. (Note: the body can normally fend of such virsuses, when the immune-system is able to work effieciently.)

I am currently recovering at home (20th December) and will be at home with my girlfriend over Christmas. Due to the nature of the virus (and low immunity, which means I am susceptible) I will be remaining here for an as of yet undecided length of time, until it is safe to return to return to Germany. I have regained a fair amount of lower-torso usage, and can hobble about, but it will be a good while before I’m capable of a lot, let alone able to work.

But, I am extremely lucky. It will not be forever. I am very grateful for what I have.

Many, many, many thanks to everyone who has lent support to me in the last three years in the form of emails, cards and telephone calls. Soon I’ll probably want to talk, but right now I’d just like to recover and not think about this (second) nightmare any more.

Regards from Chris Pink and the whole Pink family—couldn’t have done it without you.
