My medical problems and their investigation and treatment
Big surprise! Last week I received a phone call to say that my Trekinetic wheelchair would be arriving this week! I was super-excited, because they told me it would not be with us before the end of July. This means we have got the whole of the rest of the summer in which…
Back in the studio again briefly, to make a special card for a special friend! This is how my desk looked on Monday afternoon. It was my friend's 60th birthday and she invited me and four other special friends for a girls' lunch at Bistrot Pierre in Torquay. I had never been there…
Still nothing on the desk, I'm afraid. I've been too busy with other things, and too tired, to even think about anything creative. I didn't join in last week but managed to visit a few folks, and was so happy to see the photos of the crop! It looks as if all the…
I've been dying to try the funkiest coolest off-road wheelchair and today I got my opportunity. Introducing you to the Trekinetic. Today Mal came to demonstrate the Trekinetic all-terrain wheelchair and give me a chance to try it out. I have been in contact with Magic Mobility and they arranged for Mal to…
It's been a couple of weeks since I've done a WOYWW post. I haven't had time to even think about the WOYWW 10th anniversary... Life has been busy and full of superlative ups and stressful downs. Let's start with some of the ups. Desky stuff included! My hubby's 70th birthday My hubby and…

WOYW - What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday WOYWW - What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday. I know we always say it, but goodness, another week has gone by! We are now moving towards the end of April. Frightening, isn't it. There will soon be Christmas lights up. So - what's on my workdesk this…
WOYWW - What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday? My workdesk for this week's WOYWW has been my computer - working on my new blog. This has turned out to be very complicated and after a couple of false starts, I think I am on my way now. It's very slow, because I don't really…
A troublesome wisdom tooth Early in March I started to get toothache. On 7th I went to the dentist and he said there was a crack in my top right wisdom tooth. He put in a temporary filling and told me to come back in three weeks and he'd put a permanent one…
History Last time I saw Mr. Pullan, my regular colorectal surgeon at Torbay Hospital, he said he would refer me to a colleague in Exeter to decide the best way forward in the treatment of my parastomal hernia. He has repaired this hernia twice and I still have the problem. Last year, he…
