Spoiled little beasties

I was in Safeway today grabbing some cat food for the guys, not sure I should have driven, but there we go… Sitting on the shelf next to the tinned stuff was this:- Appetisers for cats… This is worse then the dog cologne, I know how the cats eat, there is no appreciation of fine dining or quality prep. They are fussier than dogs (bar…

The last few days…

It’s been a long few days, health wise something of a setback with scans, tests, fluid being drained, more drugs and maybe more surgery.

I’m starting to understand how difficult the surgery was, all the work was done looking through a…

Today was a day with a number of positives. First I managed a few hours of work and went into the office for almost three hours this morning. That’s the most I’ve done in a week, and in the big scheme of things it’s not much and I took a two hour nap this afternoon, but I’ll take it. Vision is getting better, good enough…

My name is David

I have been given an opportunity to take part in an incredible adventure. My life is full of meaning, I have reconnected with friends and family in ways I’ve never known. I am loved, appreciated and feel overwhelmed by what people have done for me over the last couple of weeks. What is important has been completely re-written for me. I have a new understanding…
