Bubblesmum said:Finally caught with your diary from last year ….. wanted to say I think what you achieved was incredible from one !!!!!! to another 😉
I don’t think you realise how resilient you are - and how you rise above despite really large boulders being thrown at you ( 🤬🤬🤬🤬 to uneducated health professionals, charities and car repair people … )
Hooray to the equivalent people in those professionals who went the extra mile for you )
I commiserate with the increasing falls and fatigue all consequences of our condition …it’s a pain in the bum ( often actual as well as figuratively ) and nothing that can be done sadly as our body changes…as you know I now use a power wheelchair outside - sitting is the only preventative measure. But that’s still not easy to use physically when cars are involved etc.
Please be kind to yourself and know that in many peoples eyes you are loved.I whisper admired, inspired as we hate those words don’t we as would just like to be CP free and ordinary…. Even so your story helps me to feel I am not alone x
love and hugs xxxPs it seems they will not allow a certain word which was Scope’s original name. A medical term for us in the 60s/70s !

Not a clue about the tights, but loving the idea of the jewellery! The fall and the toilet seat, though ... horrible. And it actually sounds really dangerous in a bathroom, hope you're okay.2023: the year I get to buy a car3
