Hello all!!!! :wavesmile:
I was drinking my coffee this morning and thinking of you all and about how even though the forum is a wonderful, wonderful place and you've all supported me through unbearably hard times, I only tend to post here when things go wildly wrong and seldom ever post anything good!
So, on a different note today I'd like to tell you about all the things that have gone right lately! First of all, I've managed to stay out of hospital for what seems like an amazingly long time now and I'm actually doing incredibly well! After my last hospitalization (where things were rather touch and go for a while) I've been in almost perfect health! I'm still taking my meds of course and have even had to go into a&e a couple of times with cyanotic hands and needed heparin infusions etc etc but I wasn't admitted!!!!! I had my infusions as an outpatient and then skedaddled out of hospital and back home!!!! 8) I even had two friends come to Athens from Belgium and managed to stay out of hospital for the duration of their stay (when I was pretty sure that by some twist of fate something would go wrong as usual and they’d end up seeing the lovely Athens hospitals instead of the Acropolis and close-by taverns!)!!!
On the university front, I'm graduating this June and I'm actually at a stage where I can dare to imagine that I might even remain well long enough to do postgraduate studies after my graduation!!!! On top of my psychology studies, I'm doing some online anthropology courses from another university, I'm finishing my grade one Braille diploma (although being able to actually read Braille without being reminded of some form of torture is another much more amusing matter! :hehe: ) and am also doing a specialized course on learning through play for very young visually impaired and/or blind children!!! :bigsmile:
I'm sure I've forgotten a lot of stuff here, one of which is that I'm going to a clinical psychology conference tomorrow in London and doing a charity run on Sunday (not sure I can mention for which charity here, hence the lack of specificity about that) with friends where we'll all be dressed in Santa suits with bright red hats; but I think you get my point without me continuing to bore you to death with an even longer, peppier post!! :hehe:
There’s really no specific point to this post, nothing major to announce, no life-changing stuff going on but drinking my coffee this morning I really just wanted to shout out to you all that I’m still here, happy as can possibly be and life is fantastic to say the least and I guess I wanted to share the good news with you all (at last!!)!!!!! :thumbs:
