At home again

Mar 22, 2007 13:45

Took an ambulance home this morning - to avoid renewing the painful taxi experience of last December. Paris pavés are quaint but when one is sensitive to bumps, it's preferable to take all precautions and minimise the strain.

Thank you all for your thoughts, prayers and support. This last hospital visit was clearly the most taxing on me as it was for Froggy and the rest of the family. I'll boil it down to have given me a lot to think about.

Froggy's mum likened my journey to a trek through the desert: sometimes when I see an oasis it seems so close, just over the next dune, and then I realise that it's much further away. Sometimes the oasis turns out to be a mirage and sometimes I can replenish my strength. I agreed adding only that there are oases and there are mirages, and I haven't yet finished crossing the desert. The journey continues.

I'm much happier to be at home. I know that here I will heal and build up my strength to take on the upcoming challenges.

Squee for the tea (Noodles the mc brought me cheer as it encircled my water bottle). I think I'll enjoy a cup this afternoon.

hospital, home
