Easter Monday, is traditionally a Bank Holiday. For the shopaholics, who complained bitterly that they were not allowed to shop on Easter Sunday, it means that they can now satisfy their urge go shopping for ‘bargains’ – how sad! In our case there was still the Arts and Craft Exhibition in the village hall which […]

I think we have cracked the night pain, for the time being anyway, until I speak to the pain consultant. We have reverted to including the paracetamol-2000 m.g – and this seems to hold off the severe pain long enough between being turned every couple of hours. A pretty miserable day. So far as the […]

Due to on-going problems with Google the domain where my site is located has been hacked into again. This means that all websites associated with this host can have their hits redirected for this site to site of the hackers choice, usually a commercial one.

6 April 2012-Good Friday
The beginning of the Easter holiday and one of the most important days in the Christian calendar for those who believe. Although sunny and bright. There was a chilly wind so sadly I was prohibited, by ‘my lovely’ to spend time in the garden. I’m sure she’s right. Having come through two winters without catching […]
5 April 2012
After the most painful night I have ever had. I started the day off by sending along e-mail to Dr Mark Abrahams, the pain consultant at Addenbrookes, commenting on the increase of pain that now appears to be affecting my entire skeleton and requesting him to take the matter in hand. Even if the nerve […]

I’m sorry to say I had another painful night. Fortunately I had a telephone consultation booked for today. That’s the good news. The bad news is that the so-called consultation turned out to be a nurse ringing to find out how I was. I just can’t get it out of my mind that there must […]

The first, of our two visitors today was Sarah Lahert, the Area Manager for Sumed International, the official agents for the Roho cushion that I have been going on about over the last couple of weeks. What it came down to was this the cushion, that my OT had kindly managed to extract from the […]
2 April 2012
The first day of a busy week, starting with my quarterly assessment at Papworth Hospital, basically for my lung tests. The day started badly with me sitting for almost 3 hours in my wheelchair in the hall waiting for the ambulance people to turn up. Not uncommon there had been a cock up over the […]
1 April 2012 – April Fools’ Day
Traditionally the day of the year when people play pranks on other people. Usually your friends but there have been instances where pranks have been played on people through newspapers or radio that have got completely out of hand. The origin of April Fool’s day or All Fools Day is very is uncertain but it […]
31 March 2012
Started yet another section of my blog diary today. There is usually a reason for the change. This time I got tangled up in a lot of tables which had been inserted to cope with all the photographs of the Queen and the American Presidents. These tables affected subsequent entries and although I could remove […]
