20th Jan 2016

Woke up early this morning and deb brought me in a cup of tea before she went to work. When my alarm did go off at 7:30am the song playing on the radio was Survivor-Eye of the Tiger. Awesome song to start the day with. Feeling good! Well that feeling left very fast after trying to make a doctors appointment. The jumped up little cow of a receptionist try to palm me off with planning an appointment and not going today. When I said I wanted to see a doctor today she huffed down the phone and then in a grumpy voice said OK fine and then booked me in. Who is she to decide if I need to see a doctor?……….. Is she medically qualified? Grrrrrr!!!

That put me in a bad mood for most of the morning. I text Debs dad David to see if he would be able to take me to the docs and he was so I booked him. David is like my personal mobility service. I wouldn’t have been able to get to even a third of my appointment without him.

So once I got down to the doctors and try to let them know I was there, it turns out that the dozy cow this morning didn’t even put my name in she put someone else’s. Blood starting to boil again but the receptionist that was on was really helpful and sorted it out. She also told the other one that she made a mistake….I sat there and had a little chuckle. Saw the doctor who was amazing and sorted everything for me, so I felt good when I came out. Although I noticed how I was starting to stutter a lot. This is a big side effect of tiredness and mental strain I sometime get. But no rest for the wicked as I have Sarah & Annette from Headway coming over.

Sarah & Annette came round to set up a programme for me to use to help with my cognitive repair. It’s called CogMed and its to help with memory skills. It’s brilliant and I can’t wait to do this for the next 8 weeks and I can monitor my progress. This is what I mean the help the Headway give is outstanding.

Deb came home from work early today to deal with an insurance company as I can’t retain the information (hence the CogMed). 

Afterwards Deb thought that Asbo was in need of being serenaded. What do you think??…….

We started watching Daredevil on NetFlix……..hmmmmm it’s ok………..will give verdict at end of season 1.
