Carol has just had a double mastectomy for breast cancer
Ronnie is just out of hospital following a serious car accident
Kim Fox and Linda Carter had premature babies
Tamwar Masood has scarring from serious burns as did Kat Moon
Nancy has epilepsy
Paul is Type 1 IDDM (Insulin Dependent Diabetes Melitus)
Stan recently died of pancreatic cancer
Jim died having being struck by strokes
Then there is the binge drinking alcoholicthat is Shirley Carter
Jade Green has cystic fibrosis
Jean and Stacey Slater are Bi-polar
Lee is about to be diagnosed with depression
And it could be argued that Big Mo Slater has BSE (Or mad cow disease if you prefer)
Patrick is recovering from a stroke

Have I missed anybody? Albert square wouldn't be my postcode with this record of health

Do Tamwar's scars from the fire count? Obviously it was quite a while ago now but it's all still affecting him and it's some pretty significant scarring.

It counts because my mum (who used to be a nurse) says that burns that bad would probably continue to need treatment of one kind or another

Wow, that must be awful. So they'd never fully heal at all?

Cora is also a heavy smoker, and a bit of a lush Incidentally, one of Cora's daughter's (Rainie) is a druggie, the other one (Tanya) had cancer, one granddaughter is an alcoholic who suffered a relapse earlier this year, the other one (Abi) clearly has some sort of delusional mental disorder these days

Ian and Claudette are both clinically obese, and many other square residents are overweight.

Most of those are different type of health. You can't call someone unhealthy for having cancer.

But the boozing, cafe breakfasts and take aways are hardly an advert for a healthy lifestyle. Even Kush who runs drinks and eats in the cafe.

No if he's had them this long the thickness of the burns must have been bad enough to leave permanent scarring and needs looking after.

well if it was not a tumor, it is something else in his brain, maybe an aneurysm, none of which is good news. It might be a non cancerous tumor. I guess we won't find out for a while. But there was something wrong up there ( apart from the obvious joke issues)
