reddoc Posted August 1, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2017 6 hours ago, LondonBristolian said: The important thing to be aware of is your diagnosis means you have rights under the disability section of the Equality Act. What this means is the club have a duty to make reasonable adjustments so you can still attend the game. For intents and purposes you'd count as an ambulant disabled customer and they should be able to ensure you have an appropriate seat that works for you on request. More info here... https://www.bcfc.co.uk/fanzone/supporter-guides/disabled-policy/ That's really kind thanks. Actually overwhelmed and a bit embarrassed by the response, as without tempting fate , got a good prognosis and I'm luckier than most as I can ring a mate to sort me out. Was only trying to find out if there was anyway of standing rather than sitting for saturday as it's currently more comfortable. Bit old to worry about my rights, but I appreciate the thought.

There's a little rectangle of AstroTurf with some lines painted that is only occasionally stood in during a game. Have you got a pair of brown shoes?

RedM Posted August 1, 2017 Report Share Posted August 1, 2017 8 hours ago, reddoc said: Thanks Peg, as I mentioned above Mark Kelly's been in touch , apparently the club has a special blow up rubber ring for such eventualities, so hopefully sorted. ( He was actually much more helpful than that of course) Never underestimate the comfort a blow up ring can give, a small child's swimming ring will do. Buy one and try before the game, pound shops might have them. If you feel a bit of a Burke carrying a swimming ring into the ground wrap it in a jumper and sit on that. Voice of experience here, no not the same as you but had stitches after childbirth! What a great attitude you have, positivity and humour can fight anything. Enjoy the game!

Great idea - but don't put the ring in a rucksack :-) All the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worse than the labour pain... pillows, rubber rings or my personal favourite was a pillowcase with a pack of frozen peas inside, in the centre of the rubber ring... the relief!

Red M', I couldn't love that post more if I tried. Sadly my ball doesn't hurt cos it's plastic now, wanted something to waggle in front of the mirror. Pains lower abdo , thus pain sitting.

simon uk Posted August 1, 2017 Report Share Posted August 1, 2017 All the best with your treatment. I had the snip in january, the first week was brutal but after 7 days it gradually eased off. Not sure if this offers any assistance or not, but gives you a possible timeframe on when you may start to feel better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
