THE organiser of a Darlington heart condition support group visited a regional conference last week with the help of his cardiologist.
John Waterson, who runs the Darlington Cardiomyopathy Self Support Group, is on benefits because of his condition, so Dr Jerry Murphy sponsored him to attend the Cardiomyopathy Association meeting.
Mr Waterson, of Darlington, said: "It gave me a chance to meet people from different areas who have the same illness."
