Hilary is currently in the Royal Liverpool University Hospital, where she underwent a bone graft last Friday to hopefully fix her broken femur. This never properly healed after the accident last year, so the specialist decided recently that a bone graft would be the best option.

The surgery went well, but it was a long job - about 6 hours. She is naturally very tired and not feeling too great at the moment, but her recovery is on track and the hospital staff are pleased with her progress. Gail and John are still in Liverpool with her at present. We are not sure when Hilary will be allowed home, but hopefully it will be within a week. She was pleased to receive flowers today from the TT Marshals Association.
