The only way is up! Looking at my last post, things seemed to spiral downward as just a couple of weeks after my beautiful motorbike burn, i passed out and cracked my head open! 4 stitches and one hell of an egg-shaped lump on my head... Much of the following weeks have been spent "in recovery". As a promise to Mik who went over and above expectations in taking care of me, i quit the gym (and yes, i am biting at the bit to go back!). I have also seriously upped the food intake after losing a considerable amount of weight in the past few months. It may be pure coincidence but i have to rule out possible causes to decide what on earth is going on. It's not fair to Mik or to myself or to anybody if i am miserable all the time (been really down for a while) and i have to get myself sorted. So...
I'm trying. I have started running/walking with Mik 3 times per week but i am still banned from the gym! I am eating sensibly - starting to feel fat but will persist for a while longer... And actually i do feel better. I have now had the stitches out of my head, the lump is getting smaller, the burn on my leg is almost healed and i am feeling rather chuffed to have had a fairly healthy week this week... so much so that i may have to treat myself to some new shoes that i saw in Patong last week :) On 13th August i have to have a tetanus booster injection and i will chat to the doctor then about blood tests for diabetes etc - i still keep having faint spells so have to take a bit of care.
Oh well... If the bump on the head did one thing, it smacked me back to reality! I have to get myself sorted and start enjoying life again. So far so good... Watch this space...
