Urgent help, Puglia region.

anyone who can help my wife tomorrow?

really long shot but my father-in-law has been moved from Foggia to San Severo with a suspected heart attack.

I've just booked a flight Manchester Naples and am looking at how to get her to the hospital ... I understand Naples-Foggia train is good and quite easy but rest i'm not sure about.

TIA.

and apologies for lack of Italian ... been married to her for 29 years but languages is something my brain apparently does not do. .

Yes man i wish you a fast recovery...

In any case keep in mind that not far away from there in San Giovanni Rotondo there is one of the best hospital in Italy, look for "casa sollievo della sofferenza"

That's the important thing. Fingers crossed it stays that way for a long, long time.

I know from earlier in the year how difficult it can be sorting moving rellies around with a medical emergency in the family, it's a very stressful time.
