Hi :) I felt it was time to do a November catch up...
Once I'd deferred my nutrition studies due to my relapse, I'd planned to restart this December. Perhaps I was being too optimistic. I have since decided it's far too early and my health is nowhere near good enough to be studying again yet. So I plan to start again, December 2013. I guess between now and then I will continue to focus on my recovery, maybe do some volunteer work later down the road.
I have been out a couple of times with my sister, we took a trip to Primark. Me in my mobility scooter & purchased some goodies & my new beloved sheep onsie for these freezing nights we're having! We had a really good day in Manchester & days like that make me so grateful and give me the will to carry on & pray they become more frequent.
I'm loving playing my music more. The piano & flute practice is coming along great. I can do 'Jingle Bells' on the piano with two hands, if my family have heard it once they've heard it one thousand times!
My highlight these days is watching 'Made In Chelsea' on a Monday night. 10pm on E4. It's one hour of pure escapism into a 'perfect world' I love it. A world of glamourous 20 somethings, living fabulous carefree lives filled with champagne, friends, holidays and fashion. If only.
I had the further blood tests done at the German clinic for co-infections, and I have three, which isn't good news. It just makes treatment that bit more complicated. We are currently looking at another route so we will see where that leads... This topic always makes me nervous and makes me feel very uneasy. I would love to someone come along with a magic wand... please?!
My Sister, the Cockapoo's & I - I swear, everyone who is ill needs a Cockapoo, they come and snuggle with me and always make me smile :)
Family gathering for Grandads 87th Birthday
My brain fog has cleared slightly, enough to do abit more reading. This little lot will take a while though!
I am thankful for all I have. It would be too easy to focus on what I haven't...
I don't know if anyone has seen 'The Secret' on DVD. Basically it's a motivational tool & it's on DVD, CD & a book. There's also 'The Power' (which I have on CD) a very similar thing. It's based on positive thinking and whatever thoughts you give out you must have returned to you by the universe. Take some parts with a pinch of salt but it's a great way to live with some great practical advice to try. Recommended.
Fudge & I last week
Some quiet time for bible study. I've been managing to go to the service most weeks which is great & to stay & chat with people afterwards. Also I go to a bible study every week which I have been well enough to go to, but it's very laid back. One week I wasn't feeling great so I went in pyjama pants & a hoody. My friends there are also an ongoing great support which I greatly appreciate.
I'm enjoying baking but I try not to eat it myself & share it out
This was me on Saturday, I may look OK on the outside, on the inside I was struggling alot. Hours after these photos were taken I came to a large full stop & had to go to bed early amongst a house full of family. I felt very rude because even my extended family don't understand but I couldn't pretend to be OK any longer.
Sister, Dad & Me
The day after I couldn't move from bed. I was stuck in a darkened bedroom, the light and noise was so sensitive.
I was so fatigued, aching all over, sore head, temperature, couldn't eat, sore throat... the list continues. It's 3 days later, as I said I'm still very poorly. Tomorrow is another day.
I hope you are all doing well
