Mark McLaughlan update... temporary visitor restriction

Frans Karel - Owner of Bikeforce, Woodvale and a valued member of the Life Cycle for CanTeen community has given us this update..

I visited Mark at Shenton Park today, while I was there he was moved to a single room for a few days as they have some fears that his wounds could get infected. The specialist indicated that they would like to restrict the visitors for a few days as they will need to wear protective gowns and gloves.

I am no doctor but it was explained that the antibiotics Mark has been on for the last month, reduces the white blood cell count in his system making him vulnerable to infection.

It is only a cautionary step and Mark is getting up and moving around with a walking frame and is still very positive about everything.
