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!

Happy days are here again

Been a really heavy week this week one way or another. Nearly got the wedding details sorted out, but most the of meetings I had were all on the same evening which was a bit of a bummer, as I almost met myself going backwards at one point.

Started with my physio session. Believe me, laying on a PVC covered couch, hanging near enough upside down and literally having the crap beaten out of you by a gentleman with percussion movements that rattle your fillings in your teeth as he beats your back, is a wee bit tiring in this heat!
My hair was stuck down onto my head, I had mascara everywhere and I smelt of baby puke from where I cuddled a sweet gorgeous baby earlier.
After that the evening could only get better!

Actually my weekend has been fab so far. We went to Suffolk to my Lynn's cottage Friday night and had our meal out in her garden, that luckily doesn't smell of babies puke, but gorgeous aromas from honeysuckle, roses etc.
Woke up this morning with a hangover, but helped Julie by getting all the flowers made into pretty posies and displays for the party later. Felt really good to be of some use again and doing my bit for Natalie and Tif's first wedding anniversary BBQ at Julie's. And best of all, I had photos taken of me laughing my head off. I haven't had that done in ages even on both of my holidays which I really enjoyed, but I was looking strained with my shoulders up by my ears!
Amazing how learning what you're scared off really helps you stopping being scared and relaxes you, if that makes sense... shit or bust I guess????

So tomorrow I know I will wake up with yet another hangover because as I'm typing this I'm hiccuping nonstop and I've got to sort out the final details at the wedding venue first thing so no lie in, but I'm looking forward to it.

Lots of love Debbie x
