How is your day going?

Been a quiet day, came close to calling an ambulance due to my O2 Sat being at 88% this morning, bile reflux closes the throat up and wakes me up. Thankfully the two inhalers helped out and I ended up going back to sleep. The Whiskey Barrels arrived today, can certainly they smell of Whiskey 🥃 some plants have arrived, the lights and slate chipping. Hopefully the inner gardener in me comes alive again.

Evening all. Not particularly ok. I am ok until I am not . That is normally after I am back home and I am on my own.. hopefully tomorrow I will feel better. Monday is bank holiday so I have to find something to do instead of staying at home.... Until tomorrow.

When we were young on a Friday night we went out on the town, not in my case though 😂 was my worst nightmare!

Now my Friday nights are spent watching tv - sometimes with murders!
but the highlight of the night is always organising all of the next weeks meds, alongside double checking the PRN Meds as well.

it’s sobering as you pop each tablet out into the box and think to myself, that up to five years ago I was only on two meds. Now I rattle every time I move! Or should I say squeak with the old joints.

I’m a stubborn old man (yes I’m 42) but I feel more like I’m 82 at times. I’ve been fighting since 1983 and always refuse to give up, no matter how dark it gets.
At times my brain can be like the Somme, Bannockburn, Battle Of Bosworth, Jutland, D-Day, El Alamein etc at the best of times. But I just remember my roots, the loved ones I had that were strong people and inspire me each and every day.

I agree, keeping going when we are faced with such darkness and adversity all the time is brutal, tiring and is very lonely.
