Good day all
Hope you are looking forward to the weekend.
Obviously a pseudonym, just like the picture it conjures up.
65, yes an OAP, never thought I would reach pension age when first diagnosed with Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis aged 50.
Walked into the consultants no aids not even a walking stick.
Now triplegic, wheelchair or bed bound.
Quit active when younger, amature rugby league, swimming, gym, bike for training and pleasure, tried spring board diving couple years ( rubbish ) and Ju Jitsu, was a 4th dan black belt and me and a mate had a martial arts club.
Broke my heart having to close it.
Unbelievably 12ms earlier my mate was diagnosed with RRMS
You couldn't make this up but it is true.
I have 2 children a girl 34 and a lad 31.
Anyway I want to have a good winge about wheelchair users, hospital appointments and needing a hoist but were would be the best to post
