‘It never rains, but it pours.’
It’s an old saying, usually heard in a negative context when the universe appears to be conspiring against you. Today it’s in a positive context.
I know I posted a blog a mere few hours ago, but the universe have continued to bring things back. The 3rd thing on my wish list of returns – an appointment with my neurosurgeon. The post came through and I instantly saw the dominoes menu on the floor. Obviously I did my usual and picked it up to check the deals on a fast food place I never frequent, and put it in the recycling. Going back through the hall, I had t spotted letters hanging out the letter box. A brown one which can never be good. But it was good, it was finally an appointment on 8th feb at Southmead. I honestly couldn’t be happier.
I’m also overwhelmed, it’s a lot to happen in just two days, but it’s a good overwhelmed. All I need to do now is trust that my surgeon will agree to proceed with the implant as I have tried all non surgical methods available, as he requested.
Another positive for today is that having done the drive to and from Bristol yesterday I predicted today would be a little rough. But as it happens, today is just an average day. My pain is at its usual 8/10, no shocks of pain, not a significant droopy eye. Just a big standard normal day. I couldn’t have predicted it, and it’s a welcome surprise. Especially given I have to wash my hair!
