AS GOOD AS IT GETS PHASE DAY 2

DVT (Deep Vein Thrombosis) DAY 17

A.G.A.I.G. DAY 2

A friend sent me this yesterday, I thought people might like to see it:

WHAT WAS HERE WAS A FALSE NEWS ITEM THAT I HAVE NOW TAKEN OUT OF THIS POST. THANK YOU TO MIKE FOR POINTING THIS OUT. IF ANYONE READ THE ADVICE PLEASE IGNORE IT AND REFER ONLY TO THE GOVENMENT ADVICE ON COVID-19.

Today I got my “stay at home letter” officially making me one of the one and half million “shielded” but confined people. See below:

My shield letter. (part of)

So today I got up had a bath and breakfast and then headed for the shed. My partner is in the office fielding calls and organising staff and my daughter is in the back room working on her studies and suporting pupils at the local community college. We do not see each other except at brief moments to organise a meal. I spend most of my day writing letters, which I cannot post myself and rely on my daughter to post them when she goes for her exercise walk in the local vilalge park. If I have your address then you are likely to get a letter in the not too distant future. Every hour I get up and make sure that I get at least 250 steps in. Then its back to the shed and today the the midday concert on Radio 3. Anything is better than Jeremy Vine. Post lunch and I spend time sowing some vegtable and flower seed in the greenhouse and the new rasied bed on the patio. Its very satisifytign but now I just have to wait to see if they germinate. If they do I can sow a second round. So this evening I shall write the blog, short and sweet it will be tonight. Tomorrow brings the challenge of clearing the gutter hedgehogs, servicing the water butt and of course writing more letters. I also have to sort out how I get my 28 day injection at the GPs on Monday, life is full of challenges. Yesterday was full of good news about my cancer now this good as it get phase becomes the long haul to freedom.

More than ever this is true.
