well guys and gals, its been quite a while since i blogged. i did have my greek holiday, and very nice it was too, i arrived back on the 13th, brown, relaxed, and ready to tackle my site the house and everything..but on the 16th sept, life told me oh no i wont.. not yet, i woke 5.30am that day and couldnt move, left hand side of me was totally paralysed.. a trip to the hospital told me news i wasnt ready to hear, i had had a stroke, a small infarction to the right side of the brain , they called it, as you can imagine it wasnt small to me.
life from then changed for me, no more smoking, a change to my diet, and drugs every day of my life, im lucky i know, i am alive, but the fear, ok the terror of another stroke, is stuck with me, and i tell you it isnt a nice feeling. Its almost 3 weeks since i was struck, i still fear as much as the first day, but i am determined to get well, despite the bad days.. yes folks the days when for no reason i cry and think no-one wants me this way...i have partial use of my hand and arm.. im working on making that stronger, and i have a leg brace to help correct a little bit of a drop foot, so i can hobble about a bit, so yes im lucky in this.. and i know God is with me, helping me through, well thats all for now, ill update you when i can on my progress, and see if i can get mr genius to finally finish my site, because one things for sure, poetry lifts me, so no way will i quit writing.
cya soon
