Newcastle's manager, Eddie Howe, faced a serious health scare when he ignored pneumonia symptoms, thinking it was just the flu. It was only through the insistence of the club's doctor, Paul Catterson, who visited him at home and performed blood tests, that he sought hospital treatment in time. Howe expresses gratitude for Catterson's quick action, which likely saved his life, and conveys an important lesson about the necessity of voicing health concerns and seeking help rather than suffering in silence.
I can't guarantee it but I'd like to think I would act differently if I was feeling that way again. My message to everyone is: Don't suffer in silence. Seek out people who can help you.
I was very thankful that the doctor here, Paul Catterson, acted quickly because, without that quick intervention, then, possibly, it could have been a different outcome.
