    I really struggled to have my shower.
    I had hoped to manage to get to chair yoga ��!♀️ but it is not to be.
    I am bent over like an old woman and my zimmer is my friend today. :(. :(. :(

    Hope your back feels better soon, must be so frustrating for you. :(

    Glad to hear that you have your ramp and scooter sorted though, fingers crossed you can get out and about again soon.

    Beanie your spasm sounds horrendous for you. Is it painful when it’s like that.
    Hope your best boy had a good birthday.
