These poems are extracted from Thomas Milner's blog Notes from the Waiting Room written between 2011-2012, when he was living in a care home overlooking the Atlantic Ocean in north Portugal and dealing with the consequences of multiple operations to remove brain tumours. With the help and support of his family and his second family - that of the Lar - Thomas regularly posted articles and poems to his blog Notes from the Waiting Room, accompanied by paintings and lively discussions with those who followed his work. His wry humour and skill at observation provide an insight into both the later years of life in the 'waiting room' and his many adventures before that, from Algeria to Yorkshire.
Tom died in 2018 and is survived by his two sons.
