Two years ago, a resident of Medlicott Drive had life-saving surgery on his oesophagus. The success of this operation was due to the great skill of the surgeon Mr Bruno Sgromo, and to the fact that there was an Intensive Care Bed available for him at the Churchill. Our resident has circulated an appeal from the Oxfordshire Oesophageal and Stomach Organisation - great efforts are being made to raise enough money to fund another Intensive Care Bed for the Churchill and, to that end, Mr Sgromo is running two marathons.
