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!

All things bright and bloody cold!

Blimey it's brass monkeys out there today.

Just shows how looks can be deceiving as it looked so sunny and bright, but as soon as you walked outside your ears didn't half twang. Still the drive in was lovely, hardly any traffic until I got nearer the uni and then I did get stuck, it was outside a little cemetery that you don't normally notice when driving. Looking through the cobbley bricked arch and the old wooden gates at the overgrown grasses tinged with frost, it was like looking at a picture postcard.
Also what was cute was the little bunches of roadside snowdrops that I passed on the way into work, they looked like little bunches of random kindness.

Had a massage lunchtime for Mission Croatia. It's where our lovely ex chaplain, some staff and students go over to Croatia to the same children home come hospital each year to help restore it and keep it in working order. I would have loved to go, but I'd be more of a hinderance now. So I did my bit and paid for a fundraising massage and bonus... I feel like I've got a long neck again! I get so round shouldered carrying my oxygen around all the time that it's lovely to have a good old rub down.

I shall sleep well tonight.

Lots of love Debbie x
