Harrison Improving After Transfusion

Nathan Harrison says things are “finally starting to improve” just over two weeks after an accident which “felt like being hit by a train”.

The Onchan man remains in a Liverpool hospital but confirmed his condition is “on the up.”

In a post on his Facebook page, he credited his medical team for their intervention.

“They spotted my blood count was really low from all the bleeding and was one of the reasons I was struggling. I had a blood transfusion mid week and it’s started to improve my count and feeling more like myself.”

Thanks

Nathan, 26, also thanked well-wishers and people who donate blood to help people in need.

He added: “Had my first shower on Friday and got up for the first time on the frame, my back fracture is weak but stable and doesn’t need anymore action so taking all the positives,

“[I] haven’t managed to escape but hopefully in the next few days I can get back to my own bed and make the next steps of recovery.”

Nathan also continued to express his best wishes to Callum Grigor, saying he hopes he “is making more improvements in his recovery”.
