Saying it as it is!!

I will use this page to note any good, bad or remarkable experiences, that I just want to share.

Tomorrow will be 1 month since my car accident, and I am still suffering the consequences.  Each day, has been a real test and it has got no easier.  Today, I have had constant muscle spasms in my upper body, a bit like having constant whiplash pain.  I don't know what's bought it on, but today has not been a good day physically.  At least I will be seeing my Doc tomorrow, even if he can't help me, as least I can cry out to someone.  Sx

I was involved in a collision yesterday, or should I say 'someone collided into me yesterday'?  Well whatever, someone at a junction turning right, smacked right into me whilst I was minding my own business driving along.  My little pooch was thrown off the car seat, thankfully she's okay, but unfortunately I ended up spending my afternoon at A&E, and my 'little bug', as I affectionately call my StreetKa, has been sent to Ford heaven.  Not happy!

Luckily I am okay, but with my fibromyalgia, the pain is unseen and long lasting, so even though I have no cuts or bruises, I am hurting through the sheer physical shock. My phone has not stopped ringing since 8:10 this morning, and I have repeated myself so many times.  Yet I can't believe that in 48 hours, the other drivers' insurers have arranged for money to be paid into my account!  Wonderful as this service has been, I am a bit miffed that they all knew I was in A&E, that I was in a lot of pain etc, but no one thought to give me a break today, after all the trauma yesterday.  Am I being unreasonable?  Sx

The day of reckoning!
I finally came out and said "We don't have a marriage anymore", to my husband.  It was the most exhilarating and liberating experience, I have ever had.  A huge physical weight was lifted off my shoulders, and I felt like I was blinking from the daylight.

Today, marked a major event, and it's something I just have to share.

Very shortly after my sister took her last breath, my husband said that he would like to donate a special edition photograph to the hospice where she died. So it would not just be a permanent personal reminder for her family, but also for everyone who came into contact with the Elenorlions hospice to see and enjoy. It was a token of our appreciation for the care and kindness that was given while she was there.

It was a very special day, it was not about any pomp and glory, it was a quiet but happy occasion.; What made it even better, was that I was so touched and proud of my other half, for following this through from beginning to end.  It made me realise how truly remarkable he can really be!
