Chop chop chop!


I'm afraid I've been a bit slack with my blog updates, but, I have been in hospital for another round of surgery which is still ongoing from my accident in 2004.

Unfortunately, when I wiped out my face and lost my identity due to the trauma in Tampa, consultants told me that, to rebuild my facial structure, would be a long process, just like building a staircase, one step at a time.

So, another op ticked off the list, with another planned for the New Year.

Meanwhile, the ankle isn't healing as well as expected and may also require surgery. I broke the talus bone in my ankle in three places and while they weren't bad fractures, the talus bone carries the blood supply to the foot and so, is quite a tricky injury to heal.

Aw well, 'it never rains'....., but, I'm on the mend and looking forward to getting back into routine soon. I never thought I would say it, but, I am really missing training, both in the gym and swimming pool.

My poor body is craving the routine of regular exercise!!!

(Don't pay attention to the jokey photo on the right - I love my doctors really.)
