Waiting!

I'm sat here, just waiting to call the hospital. Already called them at 16:00 to find out if Susan has left theatre. I'll call back at 19:30 as they advised. It's such a long wait, I know it's a big operation and I know it has to be done.


See you later Susan. I 💕 you. We need to do all the things we talked about. Just get better soon.

My turn tomorrow for the MRI Scan. I think just lately we spend more time at the hospital than anywhere else.

Losing My Sight!

Image
 It hit me like a steam train! It seems like a lifetime since that day back in August 2023. The specialists continue to investigate into how and why I suffered sudden sight loss due to a Central Retinal Artery Occlusion.  So far the scans and tests have shown nothing, now waiting for a biopsy. I've been told, vaguely it could be due to my diabetes, cholesterol or even arthritis, all of which I try to keep under control. I do have a very inquisitive nature, so I thought I'd spend a little time researching and digging up some facts.  I know that we shouldn't search for medical symptoms on Google and specialists have told me "it doesn't do any good" but because my eyesight in my left eye (The good eye) appears to be getting worse, so here's what i've discovered...  O cular mucous membrane pemphigoid  is a type of scarring conjunctivitis. It affects the membrane that lines the eyelids and covers the white of the eye  (the conjunctiva).  I n the UK, aroun...

Girls can't play football

Image
Back in the late 60's early 70's, I must have only been 6 or 7 when I used to play football with friends in the street and back alley ways of Manchester. I remember there was a girl that used to hang around but not having the confidence to ask to join in, she would just kick a ball against the wall close to where we were playing. One day when we turned up to play and as we were placing jackets and jumpers for goalposts, we noticed we were a man down, only 7 of us! I suggested the girl (who had shown up again) make up a team? "A girl?" said Bunker who was, let's just say a large boy for his age and always black from helping his dad who was a coalman. Bunker finally succumbed after some bickering and we put the girl on the weaker team. The girl scored 7 goals! The very next time the girl showed up, she was first pick to play on our team. 😁

Don't Just Think About It!

Image
 It's been three weeks since my biopsy, my eye is a little sensitive, very bloodshot and i'm struggling to get a goodnights sleep. It's so frustrating and boredom fills the day unable to paint, I suppose it's understandable under the circumstances and I do need the rest to get back to full fitness. Having said that I also need to get out there and be part of the community. I've just completed a Makers Market at Trentham on Saturday 16th. It felt good, it's always hard work but enjoyable.  It's always been my philosophy "The time to do something is the time you're thinking about it". It's not something that you can always act upon. I've always been spontaneous and at the same time hesitant, yeah a bit mixed up, I suppose. As you get older those inhibitions that held you back in your younger days get pushed aside. You tend to mould your goals into reality and dismiss negative vibes from others and life choices become clearer. Join me at T...
