VAMPIRE CHOOKS AND THE LONG ROAD TO NORMALITY..........
'
It's been nearly a week and only now am I beginning to feel semi normal again.
I repeat semi normal.
As normal as you can feel withdrawing off morphine with a broken pelvis.
The last week hasn't been easy by far, last night was my first half decent sleep
I am fortunate enough to have a fantastic support network and my housemates have been really great, especially Cam who's done everything in his power to get me through this period of adjusting to life at home and with a clear head and body.
Well, clear of the morph anyway.
It is nice to be able to play the records again and I think I've played Stevie Wonder to death.
And the chickens are happy......... they must be because they are living in the Hilton of chook sheds.
And they get some beef occasionally, turns out they're quite the carnivorous types, can't get enough of it!
Two eggs a day is proof enough I think.
Behold the Chicken Hilton!
Tremble at the sight of the bloodthirsty hens!
I want your blood!!!
Yesterday I was coming back form my hydro and physio therapy on a 30 degree day, couldn't help but get dropped off at the local.
It's been so long since I sat outside there and had a beer with some mates on a balmy evening.
Fan-bloody-tastic!!
Tomorrow I'm off to see the specialist again.
I really am hoping he will be able to come to some sort of final decision as all this hobbling around with a busted pelvis is really about as much fun as being in limbo can be.
If I can just get it through his head that I'm over the last surgery and just want this fixed for good.
My sister sent me an email with an interesting link.
You should check it out.
Anyway, what ever problems or whines I have seem pretty pissy when compared to the courage of these two.
Here's the link to the story story.
