Thank you Rachel. You are right. Going private we need to pay for everything as we don’t have private health insurance. Unfortunately, the NHS wouldn’t perform the operation as it ‘isn’t necessary’ but my son is in pain and I am doing anything I can to make sure the problem is solved. I feel so lucky to live in such a supportive community and, today, I have collected the crutches. One small load off my mind.

Last time I used crutches from Lewisham Hospital, they had a drop off point for them at the physio centre. Glad they have found a use but hope they find their way back there eventually.

Since the crutches have been generously donated I will close this particular topic to further replies.
