Every little spin I take...


Not much to report as I gingerly return to normal activity.

I feel like I am taking two steps forward and one step back each day. Periods of reasonable stability are followed by periods of unsteadiness. I felt reasonably stable working at the hospital yesterday but then today I battled a fuzzy head most of the day.

And Murphy's Law came into play. I found myself wobbling everytime I had to check for patients walking behind me as I escorted them to the wards so of course one after another today a series of friendly, chatty patients chose to chat with me forcing me to spin around unsteadily to make eye contact.

I'm sure some of them must have wondered whether their friendly volunteer escort was drunk on the job.

  1. It will improve.

    JUST dont over do it.

    Listen to what your body tells you and rest when you need to.

    Good thoughts.

  2. So debilitating for such a long time. Wonder what caused it. I would snap at the patients, follow the line, even though I know they are always wrong for the patient.

  3. I agree with Damien...don't over do it. Hmmm...I wonder if it's bad form tipping a patient out of a wheelchair if you needed to take a seat?

    Get well soon!
