July and August 2010

Well Last month on the 2nd July me and Dean marked my mum’s death of 10 years by putting a new ground down on her grave and making it look like a garden of heaven.

And apart from that the last few months have been a bit up and down for me to say the least, was told I could have a Cochlear implant and then few weeks later I was then told I couldn’t, and by going to see the consultant he looked into my ears to see my brain but couldn’t find it, no on a serious matter, he was a bit concerned about the stuff in my ear he is now sending me for a MRI scan on my head, but then we realised they may not do it as I have titanium implants in my jaws, I tell you my life is complicated and don’t do things by halfs.

So I rang the MRI unit and they are happy to scan me and they will put something over my jaw.

My bladder is knackered, I think a full body transplant is in order.

My Volunteer at One Voice job is good, been there now since April and enjoy it, I am Information and Community Development worker, which I meet like minded people like myself and we all have 1 thing in common we are all disabled in one way or another, and also still the Disability Access Person at the One Voice.

Last week was my 38th Birthday can’t believe in 2 years time I am 40, where does the time go, didn’t do much was ill part of the day, and a bit annoyed has some of my friends had forgotten it was my birthday and 1 said it was because it wasn’t on Facebook so I have taken the step by de-activating my Facebook, but true friends wouldn’t have needed Facebook to remind them.

So much to do so little time.

Hi everyone,

Well the last few months have been a bit of a roller coaster and not had much time to blog, so thought I had better let you know I am still around and what I am up to these days, before I do I hope your all well and keeping strong in this climate we are all in (UK) with the job cuts and benefit changes, also my condolences go out to all those brave soldiers who have sadly died in Afghanistan since I last blogged, and respect to those still out there fighting for our freedom.

Where do I start, well the job I started at One Voice has taken off and I am doing all new things with the Disabled Access Guide it’s taken me places I would have thought and met new people, you can keep up to date with the access work I do on facebook by clicking here and if you want more information on Disability Access issues you can email them webmail@disabilityaccess.info

Dean and myself are working on doing a all new website and also mobile phone version of the guide which is generating great interest from local council and NHS.

We looking at finishing it all by next month, and will be having an official launch for it with the press and officials involved.

I am also doing Diversity work with other organization and last week was at HMP Lancaster Farms and hopefully doing work with them too.

COPD I have been having breathing problems for a few months and went to my GP and I have had test etc, last week I was told I have COPD but won’t know how bad till next week.

Cochlear implants, well has you may know I have been putting off having these done, but few weeks ago I had a test so now I am waiting on going to Preston to see specialist who deals with Cochlear implants.

Remember you can follow me on facebook now click here

I will try and keep you posted more often but it’s a busy couple of weeks ahead so may be after that.

Shocked

Well yesterday had a message via a friend on facebook for Dean to contact his mum and it was bad news and very important, we managed to find there number and rang her.

The news was a shock that Deans grandad (papa) had passed away has yet unsure of the cause but he had quite a few illnesses.

Dean has gone quite and withdrawn but that’s how he copes and I am with him all the way, also unsure weather we will be able to attend the funeral with Dean going into hospital soon himself but he knows I will support him what ever he decides, but won’t know till Dean rings his mum tomorrow, so until then we can’t make arrangements.

It’s a nice day today weather wise so we going to take Fido for a walk, and nip to town.

Bye for now

Then off into town and Dean saw his sister Michelle after quite some time, she said hello and Dean had to look twice I couldn’t believe how much she looked like Dean, she just started at High School so growing up fast, it was nice to see her and made Deans day and put a big smile on his face.

This evening we uploaded the Video from yesterday doing the  lighting of Lanterns round at Sarahs for my Mum and Sarah’s Nana see the video here
