In this week's podcast, "Tyre'd but not out" we are very pleased to have a very special guest Mr Keith Ambrose.

Kieth is a local (to us) very successful businessman, owner of the company "Treadfirst" with a number of outlets across East Anglia in the United Kingdom.

There are over 200 different types of Cancer worldwide and today we discuss with Keith one very rare Cancer known as "Polycythemia Vera"

Keith openly and honestly tells of his pre-diagnosis conditions, how for three years he struggled to get to a point when a full and complete diagnosis was eventually made, and his procedures and ongoing treatment to the present day.

This truly is a remarkable story and such an addictive listen, an insight into one of the rarest Cancers today of which we still know very little.

Keith's Cancer study made a new ground-breaking discovery in the understanding of Polycythemia Vera which astounded the leading Professor in this field.

Note: 
We appreciate the word Tyre'd in the title is spelled incorrectly, but it relates to Keith's business which involves Tyres.

Episode 4 : Today we are pleased to welcome onto our 4th Podcast our very first guest Andy Read.

Andy 63, a local man from Sudbury, Suffolk here in the UK and a long friend of our host Martin suffered a Cardiac Arrest back in 2018. 

Andy discusses his experience, treatment, and some of the additional complications he endured during the whole ordeal.

Andy speaks about the Cardiac Arrest itself, how quickly and unexpectedly it happened, the journey to the hospital in the Air Ambulance, his three-and-a-half-week comma, Stent, the perforated bowl, and his Stoma bag.

We are very lucky as Andy openly and honestly describes his ordeal, including his therapy and recovery to the present day and how he copes with his life going forward.
