About Me

My photo
I'll be 55 this August... I've had bronchiectasis for ten years plus this year... End stage lung disease for the past year...been on oxygen for three years... and have I got used to it yet?... nah! I am now waiting for the biggie; a double lung and maybe a heart transplant. I love my life weirdly enough, because I have some wonderful family and friends who are with me every step of the way on my adventures, even though I embarrass them on a daily basis with my unorthodox way of looking at life. Not for the faint hearted!

Big day tomorrow

Got up early today because of the bad traffic yesterday and today I sailed through and arrived 20mins early for work... Grrrgh I could have 10mins extra in the bath!
No slow down at all at work and now we have been told there will be a mystery shopper coming into the centre. We've already had one and Sam and myself passed with flying colours, but now we have another coming in. Even though we are always helpful to all, the stress of smiling and being nice is beginning to get to me!

O-Day tomorrow and to be honest I'm quite nervous. I just want to get on and use the overnight oxygen now. I am tired I admit it. I try to pretend I'm bouncy, but these last two infections (one chest and one throat) has taken it out of me. My knees still hurt from falling over on the patio. My map of Africa on my knee has a swollen bit on it and it ain't Kilimanjaro! The inside of my nose is sore from the head cold and the thought of having nose specs on for 8hrs is not a pleasant thought. I had my physio this afternoon and after Hannah had gone I just laid down on the bed and slept for an hour! Still tomorrow is another day and by Thursday I could be running up the stairs and cartwheeling down the corridoor... yeah right and Prince Harry wants me for his bride!

Lots of love Debbie x
