Disaster…

It seems impossible to me, but impossible or not, my weight has increased to a crazy level of 136.50. I’ve clearly been overeating, but I can’t see how I could have eaten to the extent I gained almost 2 kilos! I’m at a bit of a loss to work out how I got here or … More Disaster…

After the surgery, everything was going well. … More Oh, you Clot!

Cough off!!!

No matter what I try I can’t shake this cough. It’s dry, continuous and aggravating. I wish I could lose it but I don’t know where to start. I can’t see a respiratory specialist until March so over Christmas, I’m just going to spend the days hacking away and hope for the best. So bloody … More Cough off!!!
