Bed rest still after almost three years tends to make you lose track of time!

Just a short update to what I am doing.

As I have said still on bed rest but the good news is it is starting to look much better and I should be up in a few months time I hope.

Just about ready for the football season and I can go and watch Arsenal where I am a season ticket holder, but have not been for three years because of the sores. It would be great if we can have a better season than last year and hopefully if Ronaldo goes man united will be less of an odds on certainty to  win so much, but I am sure the last thig they want is for him to go especially the fans that stuck by him. Tonight’s the European championships final and I really would like to see Spain win that as they have played some great football.

Life can get pretty boring at times if you let it, but I think I try to take each day as it comes really and focus on tomorrow. I don’t know what I would ever do without my brother Dean who is amazing. Soon we will have to start looking at new wheelchairs and all the transport issues as I come off bed rest, which will in itself be a challenge.

The European football has been really good and formula one and world super bikes keep me going and I don’t know what I would do without the TV and Sky to keep me amused all day. As well as I have Physiotherapy four times a week to keep my range and movement as subtle as possible (if I did not I would be as stiff as a board) thats normally about one to one and a half hours and sometimes hurts like hell and other times is fine, that often makes me sleep well though as physical stuff really wipes it out of you.

Anyway just a short blog today as I am having some physio with my dad and brother before the football tonight.

Post again soon
