Celtic legend Murdo MacLeod has told how he has been to hell and back after nearly dying from complications following heart surgery. The Hoops hero - who spent over three months in hospital, including eight weeks on a ventilator - got home from hospital but has a long road to recovery.
The ex-Scotland internationalist, who retains the fighting spirit he had on the football field, said: “This isn’t a victory for me. This is the start of a fightback.
“It’s not as if I’ve suffered a broken toe. I spent a total of 106 days in hospital and getting back home is special. I’ll know I’ve won when I can get back on the golf course for the first time in months.”
