In my last post I explained that I was planning to travel abroad this week.
Except I haven't because, whilst in the middle of removals, I had an accident. It's not clear if I was actually hit by a speeding bike or just avoided it but damaged myself in the process. Either way, I ended up in A&E and am now on crutches because I have a damaged plantaris muscle. My leg was swollen like a halloween pumpkin.
The last few days moving out of my home whilst on crutches were very difficult to say the least.
However, I have made some wonderful friends in this trans community of ours over the years and one has take me in to her home for as long as it takes me to recover and literally get back on my feet. I'm not mentioning her name as she's quite modest about what she's done for me even though it means so much to me.
Doctors say it may take a month to be back to normal.
The worst is that I am proud of my legs but can only wear horrid loose trousers!

Eeek! Sorry to hear you've been in the wars. I hope you're soon on the mend... and free of baggy trousers. Your trans friend sounds like they've really gone out of their way, and I think that's very cool.
ReplyDeletePS: Please don't go 'normal', we like you as you are :-)
Thanks for the good wishes. My friends are very special. I'm pleased to report that the Charlie Chaplin look has been replaced by something more elegant. As for normality, what is that anyway? ;-) Sue x
DeleteWhat an absolute downer. The hardest but is being patient while the body mends itself.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Demi. Yes, it's really not what I might have expected. Things are improving. Sue x
DeleteIf you're out of baggy trousers that must bode well for your recovery, Sue. I hope all runs smoothly now, so that you can take your plans to fruition, Nikki xxx
ReplyDeleteThanks, Nikki. Mending slowly ... Sue x
