Celebrate with me today, it's my Handy Anniversary 24/9/2002 - 24/9/2010
8 years ago I had an ice-skating accident, those few seconds change my life forever.
Had to wear a cast for 3 months, from being right handed, became left handed immediately.
Had to drive a car with only one hand.
It's been a roller coaster ride, good days and bad days.
Wore over 24 different hand braces. Had physiotherapy every day for a full year.
Operated 5 times to rectify, without any success.
I PRACTICED WHAT WE PREACH TO OUR BIRDS
TIME - TO TAKE ONE DAY AT A TIME, TIME HEALS
PATIENCE - TO TAKE THINGS SLOWLY, GOOD THINGS COME TO THOSE
THAT WAIT
PERSEVERANCE - MADE A COMMITMENT TO WORK HARD EACH AND
EVERY DAY
GUESS WHAT 2 MIRACLES OCCURRED THIS WEEK
I AM NOW ABLE TO HOLD THE STEERING WHEEL WITH TWO HANDS WHILE DRIVING MY CAR
AND
I BEGAN TO WRITE USING MY RIGHT HAND AGAIN AND WITH A BONUS
I WENT STRAIGHT BACK INTO CALLIGRAPHY
I could not have done it without my two sons
Sean & Steven
You guys have been my rock, still to this very day
I LOVE YOU GUYS
Thanks to Mishka for her part in all this.
Since Mishka arrived almost 3 years ago, she refused to be picked up with my left hand, leaving me no choice but to use my right hand. I know this has contributed towards my hand becoming active again.
LOVE YOU MISHKA JADE
Sorry if I have blabbed away, but it is a big moment in my life
