I’ve been meaning to write a follow-up since my last post as my surgery was postponed to the 22nd of November (originally meant to be the 1st). Due to some complications, recovery took a lot longer than expected. To say the least; as I write this I am still in recovery mode, but just taking…

Halloween Special
Not so special more like. I realised it had been two months since I had last posted anything, so thought it best that I wrote a little something just to say that I am still alive – yay! Things that are happening or have happened:– Got engaged– Started planning for the wedding– Got told I…
Task Failed Successfully
Remember that post at the end of the year where I said I’d be trying to post at least once a week? Well that failed already. I thought I had pre-written something for the first week, but it turned out I didn’t – then I started writing something for the second week and that also…
End of Year Review
I’ve been very lapse toward the end of this year in terms of writing posts and I know I can say that I will do my best to rectify the situation; but I know that will never be the case. I’ve put it down to poor time management and life has got in the way…
J-Pouch Tips
It’s been a while since I’ve written anything and that’s mostly to do with work, but also because I’ve not had the stamina to return home after work and write any posts, but it’s brought me to the conclusion that I need to write a post about tips I’ve taken on since having the J-Pouch….
Progress
It’s been well over 2 months since the operation and the recovery has been up and down. This is just a small post for my own sanity really. While I’ve enjoyed the luxury of sitting on the toilet, browsing random content and taking my time, I’ve suffered with the pain (both inside and outside) that…
Post Op #3
It’s finally happened. I’ve had the last operation and am well on the road to recovery. 2 weeks ago, I began the final leg of the journey and as per the previous two, I will lay it out in the same way (albeit much shorter). Day 0 – I arrived at the hospital around 6:50am,…
It’s Finally Happening!
I couldn’t believe it myself, but on Thursday I contacted my previous consultant to tell her that I was still struggling and awaiting the final operation. I contacted her on the basis that she would know of an alternative surgeon if it came to it. She got straight back to me and advised that she…
Health Update – August
The reason why I haven’t posted about my health recently is because there isn’t much to say. I’m still on the waiting list, I’m still on there as “Urgent” and I am still chasing it up almost daily. To touch on the last one, my skin seem reluctant to hear, even though I have been…
Health Update – June
I’ve been meaning to write a post for a while but have ended up putting it aside each time I come to it. Now is a good time to write about how I’m doing, what has happened since my last health post and what the plan is moving forward. Let us start with how I’m…
