(03.07.12) Steve says "Don't have to go back to Plymouth hospital for another year. So I can start gentle exercise in Exeter very soon"
Fantastic to know that Steve is making genuine and measurable progress
24.06.12 - I've received a further update from Steve Perryman, via my contact, which says his recovery is going well, and he hopes, when he sees his surgeon (in about a week) that he'll be allowed to step up his fitness programme. In the meantime, he described the Euros, Ascot and Wimbledon as "heaven".
I also know that Steve has read an e-mail I sent him, conveying the good wishes of so many Spurs fans.
I am very pleased to report (11.06.12) that Steve Perryman is out of hospital, and being looked after by his family at home, "Getting stronger every day"
Latest update 6th June says that Stevie is to leave hospital this week! Great news indeed!
Latest update 30th May 2012 from Exeter City website:-
Steve continues to improve so much that he was moved to the Royal Devon & Exeter Hospital. Great news!
Latest update 28th May 2012 from Exeter City website:-
Steve has had a couple of very good days, and his recovery has accelerated positively.
His views on the Norwway v England game were as sharp as ever!
Steve has now been moved into a regular ward.
It is so wonderful to report the latest Exeter City update on Steve Perryman's condition, issued on Sunday night 20th May:-
"Steve continues to make progress, so much so he was yesterday moved from intensive care into a high dependency ward.
For those that know Steve well they will appreciate the significance of the news that he had his first cup of tea yesterday! "
Keep that recovery going, Stevie. We all hope to see you up and about soon!
As you all know, Spurs legend Steve Perryman was taken ill last Saturday (5th May, 2012) during Exeter City's final game of the season, and he has been in hospital since that time. Earlier this week, we were told that Steve had had some heart surgery.
The Exeter City site gave a lunchtime update today (12th May)that said Stevie had "another comfortable night" and that there "had been a further slight improvement in his condition".
I do not feel it appropriate to write any more about Steve's present condition here, but I do very strongly feel that we should all put our former Club Captain, and leader of one of the great Tottenham Hotspur teams, very, very high in our thoughts before, during, and after tomorrow's game against Fulham.
Stevie is about the same age as me, and I am very proud to have seen him make his Spurs debut, and to have played his heart out for the team we all love (and he does too) week-in, week-out. I am also very proud to have met Stevie in recent years, to have heard his honest, down to earth, but well-mannered views about Spurs and other football-related issues.
So, come on Steve! Come on Skipper! We are rooting for you, as we have never rooted for you before! Let's see you on the mend really soon!
