Best makes slight improvement
George Best was a “little better” today, according to the doctor treating the football legend.
The former Manchester United and Northern Ireland star suffered a severe deterioration in his condition at London’s Cromwell Hospital earlier this week.
The 59-year-old suffered internal bleeding and was put on a ventilator.
Speaking at the hospital this morning, Professor Roger Williams, said a change in medication last night appeared to be proving effective and had reduced the bleeding.
He said: “He is a little better this morning, very definitely a little better. All his measurements are somewhat improved and I think the bleeding’s a little less. It has certainly been less overnight.
“We are at least pleased with what progress he has made. Obviously there is a long way to go and who knows what will happen over the next 24 hours.
“Certainly compared with yesterday evening he’s a bit better.”
