One word can change people's life within seconds.

What a week its been. I was re admitted into East Surrey hospital last week after long hours of agonising pain crushing me down unable to walk, or even move an inch. I just feel at the moment I go forward one step then take two steps back but I must keep going. Within the last month I have had two infections and this one being my third. However, after having an ultrasound to check around my intestine and the JEC, they have found something else which at the moment is either an abscess or a hernia. I'm starting to feel a little bit like a boxing cushion, which keeps getting hits from different directions however I will not let these hits get me down! I know the doctors here are great and I know that every decision taken will make things better. Today I was told I may have to go back to my specialist hospital in London at UCL. I must admit being up there is far harder due to family and friends not being just down the road. In this situation, you really do need a hand to hold to help keep you pushing on and up there you definitely have to be more of a tougher person. However has this made me a more stronger person? I really do feel people in this world take their own bodies for granted. Today a lady opposite me was told she had terminal cancer. This shows how one word can change people's life within seconds. She's definitely a lady to admire to i must say, she sat there held strong knowing she must stay positive. Also to the left there is old lady who has dementia. A condition which effects the brain and means she forgets things. I know she still remembers incredible memories in her life and I see her looking through a book of photos her family have put together and I see moments when she kisses the photos capturing dashing memories. Her family will come in and take her to the garden in the sunshine however she would forget these times so they would kindly write these times in a note pad which she keeps with her so she remembers precious memories. I want people to know, that you need to appreciate every moment and never take anything for granted. I will keep you informed, but one thing I do know is that I'm going to stay strong!
