" I had one or two illnesses here and there and I considered myself healthy. Now, when I sit Outside In The Garden here I see people walking around, I can't believe they're walking around. I want to say to them 'don't you know it's amazing you can walk around, you can use your arms and legs'. "

, The 68-year-old said he collapsed after feeling dizzy following a walk.

When he came to, He Said he thought he was dying but his partner, Isabella d'Amico, " saved My Life and kept me calm".

He would wake up each morning wishing he could go back to life before The Incident , as though it was a " bad dream".

The writer said his physiotherapist plans to give him a fork to use soon so he can learn to feed himself again.

" This position of extreme helplessness, it makes you feel like a Big Baby , " He Said .

" But on The Other hand, one of The things it does show you is The extreme kindness of Other People . It's been An Education , I guess, On Kindness for me. "
