Well

Up half an hour before my alarm clock(s) today, ahh

And in another hour my taxi to take me shopping is due

Look

So even tho I got a see your Doctor letter off the DVLA t'other day, I don't think I am gonna rush as A) I can't afford a car yet and B) I am still getting better and I have an appointment with the eye specialist early next year, for now patience

Sigh

Yes, I'm still here......

Sleep

So I woke went to bed about 1AM s'morning, up at about 5.10 walked into the bathroom, had a piss, walked back, thought "Shall I get up?" then thought "Nah, too early ~ try", got into bed and actually went back to sleep, I didn't wake up again 'til 9.15

Radio 7

And tonight I tried for the first time in ages and I am well impressed. Listening to Dad's Army ATM

My Right Knee

So today I can walk but when I am doing so my right knee is hurting in a way it wasn't before. Lets hope it just gets better by itself

It seems to have not hurt when I was making lunch, so..... dunno

Walkies

So I got up s'morning and walked into the kitchen without my walking stick. Long may it continue...

And today I feel better at walking than I did t'other day, so I am getting better again

And yes, I am still walking after lunch, unlike t'other day....

Sleep

And last night I went to bed about midnight (I was flipping knackered) and actually slept s'morning until 8AM

Eyes

So I was outside tonight and I thought "Try my eye again", took off my patch, thought "Flip!!!! So as my my eye is usually under an eyepatch or I'm asleep, WTF is it improving? Too much to think about

L8R

So later I felt absolutely knackered because I had gotten up so early but there is no point going to bed early as I will wake up even earlier tomorrow

Botox

The ambulance taxi arrived and took me to the hospital where they were going to inject me. Both Doctors were there, 1 the chap I saw on Tuesday and 2 the chap that I haven't seen for about 3 years. First of all number 2 was really impressed with how much progress I made in that time. They had a conference about my arm and did decide to inject me. So Doctor 1 got 4 syringes ready and injected it into 2 muscles. As of yet it hasn't made much difference but I will wait and see

Actually no, just stretching on the table and possibly it doesn't hurt as much as it used to, as in the tightness is going

ETB, ETR....

Gosh, I got up at 5.30AM this morning but it may be because I am eager to go to hospital.... which I will, in hours

Visitors

Then later this afternoon that Han who I first met yonks ago and her boyfriend MRFS who I have known thru Ixion for some years but never met in the flesh came to visit. Han said "You won't remember last time I came to visit you, you were still in hospital". She also said that the last time she saw me I hadn't relearned how to speak, I could make a couple of noises but not recognizable as speech. They both also said how much better my Ixion posts are recently, I have learned partly how to communicate once more.

Gosh, I feel close to tears just trying to express how it was to see them

And I was speaking to a MOS earlier and I said that "This beautiful woman and her BF were coming to see me later" and yes, I was right, she is

Cripples

And when I got back today there was a message from Lucy saying Jackie asked her to send this, blinking flip, he's a disabled punk

S'morning

So after brekky today I was taken off to the Day Hospital to see the chap who is hoping to inject my arm with Botox tomorrow. We had to talk for ages, he was asking me loadsa questions which he will repeat hopefully in a few weeks to see how different my right arm feels

Well

Well I still got up and was having my breakfast when my alarm clock went off. Up tomorrow too. So I went to the hospital today and we had to talk about all sorts of stuff so he will be able to see if tomorrows injection has worked or not. Then we did some stretching etc, I will see the same chap at another hospital tomorrow

Knackered

Gosh I feel tired but if I go to bed now I will wake up at about 3.00AM tomorrow

Memory

So I remembered another unsuitable rhyme today, which made me think "Aargh" but I mustn't wish I would stop recalling stuff as it is a symptom of me getting better. Even if it is with such sad memories

Orthoptics

And the postman came this morning and delivered an appointment with the "Orthoptics" department at Singleton Hospital next (flippin') year. So I had to Google Orthoptics and apparently it means someone too try to fix my right eye!!!!

Wheeling Again

So today I am "resting" in my wheelchair once more, tomorrow I will leave it here and go, in an ambulance transport vehicle, to Priory Day Hospital on foot

Because of fear I am gonna take my chair with me tomorrow, hopefully I won't sit on it between arriving and leaving but stop me being scared etc
