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!

Highs and lows

The high of being back at work and reliving the holiday with my work friends is now over.

Two work friends have now left our department. One was fairly understandable as her role had dried up, but it's still not nice having to say goodbye to a larger than life person. But letting the other friend leave was total madness and I think the department will suffer because of it. Still this is what happens when you hire big companies to do hatchet jobs, you lose good people on the way because actually these overpriced outside companies only act on what it says on paper and as we all know, what you read and what is the truth can be miles apart.
Time will tell, but for now we are left with a broken department and a lot of heavy hearts. I wish my friends good luck and hope that they don't suffer in any shape or form because of this financially or emotionally.

Had my physio today which was hard work, but felt amazing after I had a quick nap to get over it. It was the first in over a week and I felt so much better afterwards, so much so that I cut my mother's grass for her. Mind you that earned me a telling off from my son and I guess it was a stupid move really, but it did move my one of my brother-in-law's into offering to do it in future which is what I was hoping.
Sometimes in life you have to be devious even if you nearly half kill yourself in the long run! Plus it got rid of some of the frustrations from work so it killed two birds with one stone.

Early to bed tonight.

Lots of love Debbie x
