Show notes

Finally, we have produced a promo! Let us know what you think. Thank you so much for subscribing to the show! Enjoy the rest of this week. Update on Lizzie Obard from John Marder, "Lizzie woke up this afternoon. She has been looking at people and seems to hear things. The physio says she can move her limbs. She isn't fitting despite not being on the really heavy anti-convolsants. She will continue to be sedated tonight and we think that tomorrow they will aim to bring her round properly and have her breathing herself. This is all such fantastic news and shows a massive turnaround since the awful things we were hearing on Friday. Of course there is still a long way to go in getting Lizzie better but what we have seen shows what all that Daimoku can do. Thank you so much to everybody and lets please keep that Daimoku rota roaring on for the fortnight and see fantastic proof. Thank you so much. Jason and Karen
