Reclaiming Life . . .
So I spent the last 4 months loafing around, reading books,
watching tv and sleeping a lot. So I have decided to decicated the next two
months to friends, family, food, and fun as I regain my strength and spirit of
adventure.
The truth is most of the last 4 months was spent in
hospital, somewhere between conscious and unconsciousness. Most days the muscle
relaxant I need knock me out for 1hr. That
makes a lot of lost hours over 4 months.
While I feel stronger and I home again coping quiet well, no body goes
through a period like that and isn’t left weaken.
I still need to return to hospital at the end of August. So
over the next 2 months I will be going to physio and seeing an OT to regain
strength and functioning. I also think I
need some quality me time and catch up with friends instead of trying to take
10 different challenges on at once is important in my recovery.
I also have a holiday booked in Sept so fingers crossed I
will be well enough to go. Can’t wait
actually, to make some new friends, have meals cooked for me, enjoy some
adventures and fun times.
So October like seems a good time to aim for coming back to
work and writing commitments, although this will look very different, and I will be reducing my commits and work
hours to avoid a repeat performance. As
to what that will look like I have no idea, as a said its a prefect time to
take stock, and reclaim what matters to me the most.
Looking forward to seeing my readers soon.
