A Man Dies During Hurricane Gonzalo in Canvey Island's Seaside Town

The weather in England can be rough at times, but can it kill people? I am sure it can!



I heard about a man dying in Canvey Island's seaside town in Essex, UK, caused by Hurricane Gonzalo. It was a freakish accident. A family member of mine who lives in Canvey Island told me about it.

The man was working on his van when it happened. He had been working underneath his van when the jack collapsed because of gale force winds caused by Hurricane Gonzalo. The man was pinned between the ground and his transit van for around 30 minutes as the storms began.
He had been working under his van outside a house in Canvey Island, Essex, when it fell on top of him. The wind was so harsh that it knocked the jack out of place pushing the van on top of him. Ambulances were called to the scene to save the man. He was released from under the van after 30 minutes, but it was confirmed by Essex police that the man who was in his 30's died from terrible injuries, because he was crushed by the van.

There have been more deaths caused by Hurricane Gonzalo in London, which caused havoc around the London area.

Have You Ever Had Knee Arthroscopy Surgery?

Have you ever had Arthroscopy surgery of the knee before? I have just had this done. The reason why I had  this done was because I fell over two years ago and damaged the cartilage inside my knee along with the ligaments in my left leg. I had to have Arthroscopy (keyhole surgery) on my left knee, which took place last Saturday and it has  left me in a bit of pain, so I haven't been here that much lately. Arthroscopy is a type of keyhole surgery where they make two incisions in the knee under general  anaesthetic (being put to sleep). I had to stay in hospital for one night just because my blood pressure was very low after the surgery and I found that I couldn't wake up very well after having the anaesthetic. The hospital gave me some instructions to do physiotherapy exercises, which I do 5 times per day. This is to prevent Deep Vein Thrombosis occurring in my leg, where the leg can swell up and give you a blood clot. At present, I am in a little pain, but...
