A little update and an apology to all our customers Grange Farm-Brighstone
Firstly, I want to apologise for having to close unexpectedly and for anyone who was disappointed or inconvenienced.
I thought it was only right to let everyone know what happened on my last weekend of trading.
As soon as I left Grange to make my way home, I suffered a heart attack.
To be completely honest, I genuinely thought I was just suffering from indigestion. I'm currently at St Mary's Hospital waiting for a bed to become available in Portsmouth.
The strange thing is, I feel absolutely fine and I'm in no pain whatsoever. If it wasn't for the blood test showing that I'd had a heart attack, I don't think I would have believed it myself. It still doesn't quite feel real.
It's certainly been a shock and not how I expected my season to come to an end!
For now, I need to listen to the doctors, do as I'm told and concentrate on getting better. My health has to come first, and I want to make sure I'm in the best possible position to come back ready for next season.
Thank you to everyone for your understanding, patience and support. It really does mean a lot.
Hopefully, this is just a little bump in the road and I'll see you all again next season.
Take care of yourselves, and remember, don't ignore those little signs your body gives you. ❤️
