The Amy Winehouse reference has to be made. Every time you say to someone that you're going to rehab, you get sung at.... So, after 3 weeks and 3 operations, I was medically stable enough to move from the Major Trauma Ward in to a specialist trauma rehabilitation centre. I didn't know such things existed.

Blog 4 – the 3rd and final week in actual hospital
So far, two weeks in hospital, and three operations. I was weaned off oxygen. I came off the morphine pump and onto a slow release tablet form of morphine.

This was the week … Continue reading Blog 4 – the 3rd and final week in actual hospital
My last thoughts for Vee VTR

Blog 2 – the recovery begins
I'm not sure how long this particular post will be. The recovery, so far, spans nearly 7 weeks (at the time of writing). So much has happened. There is a lot for me to remember. The early days are not terribly clear. I think this post will probably just cover the week in the Critical … Continue reading Blog 2 – the recovery begins
Blog 1….21st July 2013
I started writing this as 21st July to now, but it would be a very long blog post, and no one would read it all. I am part of the way through a very big journey. It is a long road, with many challenges along the way. This is the start of my story - … Continue reading Blog 1….21st July 2013
