Super Mario 25,392 Report post Posted February 3 It is15 years tomorrow since my life was changed. In fact it is so long ago now I tend to forget the date of the event, I have to look it up. So far back, the date has almost disappeared from my memory. Looking on the positive, my life has changed for the better once I recovered the best I could. No point in looking at the negatives, you can't change what has happened. Grasp what you have with both hands and move forward the best you can under the circumstances. May take ages just to make a little progress but determination will help. There is a future after SAH, maybe not the future that was planned but a different future. In my case I feel that my life now is much better than I envisaged pre SAH 10 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
subzero 11,577 Report post Posted February 3 SM …. well done 15 years on. Your pragmatic approach has definitely been the right way forward for you. When they dished out determination and grit you definitely received a large portion. You are an inspiration in so many ways, and your health issues have certainly not curtailed your insatiable desire for `another holiday in the sun` ! I just hope Brexit doesn`t cramp your style ….. take heed...Messrs Tusk, Jonker and Barnier Subs 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Super Mario 25,392 Report post Posted February 4 Thank you all. On the very same day a friend of mine was in theatre for a mastectomy due to cancer. She is still well. There is no comparison as to living with the permanent fear of the big C returning in any shape or form. Apart from that she has an incurable liver disease that will need a transplant in the future. To my way of thinking, I am the fortunate one. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
