New Beginnings

[Suzi]

I'm so proud of you lovely! Talking to Bridget is brilliant and I'm so glad you spoke to her and were really honest. That's huge. You're doing everything you can to stay as well as you can.... Are you talking to Gerry about things?

Just checking in to say hello. I'm okay and getting from day to day as best I can. We're into the last week of our summer holidays here and we hope to make the most of it. I've asked Ais to decide where we go over the next few days.

[Suzi]

I was wondering how you were doing. It's good to hear from you. Are you still talking to Bridget?

How’s your pain? Mood? Eating? Sleeping?

[magie06]

Pain is just about bearable. Mood is up and down - a lot of time down, but I'm trying to fake it until it gets better. I've started counting my calories again and I'm trying to walk a little every day. I'm getting to sleep but finding it hard to stay asleep. I'm waking around 5 and at the same time finding it hard to get up.
I have a face to face with Bridget on Monday at 11 and I have an appointment with an arthritis specialist on Thursday.

[Suzi]

Have you spoken to anyone about your pain love? I hope that the specialists with Bridget and the arthritis person really helps.

Aisling and I went to Limerick today. Unfortunately I lost control again and I called the doctor on my way home. She wants me to go to the hospital again. I have an appointment in the morning at 9 and I'll just go to A and E after that.
