Happy survival day to meeee
Today was so much better than I thought it would be, I only got upset once when my ultimate hero Rosie sent me a gorgeous bouquet of flowers with a cute note!!! They were happy tears!
This time last year I was begging for a slice of toast after not eating all day and was given a yogurt. Today I’ve had a feast at nandos with five lovely people!
Thanks everyone for making this day as...
Wow
Depending on how you look at it today/tomorrow mark a year since my stroke. It was on feb 27th but it happened on a sunday. By this time last year I had collapsed on my way to work and about right now I was lying in a hospital bed with no idea what was going on. Earlier I was feeling absolutely fine, The sun was shining not quite as much as it is today and I decided to walk to work. Yesterday I...

hair bear
It’s almost been a year now and I havn’t been able to tie my own hair up for SO long. This is almost as hard as not being able to wear nice shoes because my stupid splint wont fit in any. Even emily gets shoes to fit her fat feet and this depresses me. I know its awfully vain but these are two of the most FRUSTRATING tasks as they seem to be the 2 things I would like to do regularly...
Saeboflex. Just realised i’ve never uploaded these. This video is from November after about 3 months of using it and I had just moved onto dropping the ball behind me instead of down by myside. enjoy x
