Long Term Hospital Stay

A Memory of Heswall.

I seem to recall a long term stay at this hospital (approx 11 months) in 1976-77. I suffered from asthma but I am not sure why I had to stay for that period of time.

I was also on the Florence Gibson Ward and remember a boat and a steam roller in bright colours (I think).

I always had to blow into a machine is a room to test my breathing.

I also seem to remember watching a Liverpool v Borussia Monchengladbach match in the TV room at the end of the ward.

There was a boy who I used to play with and I remember him jumping over one of the beds and dislocating his shoulder and I am sure it was my fault.

Does anyone remember this period of time?
