My first “proper” outing since surgery! 

????44%-£41,193 raised of

£94K goal – (£25K for 2025 Surgery debt, £69K for rib fusion surgery, in 2026 due to the added complications and hospital stay- see breakdown am quoted on GoFundMe) 

Hi!  

I finally have had a little more energy this week and my skin in ALMOST healed up from the surgery! 

My mums surgery, however, has been postponed!????

So she’s having a week’s rest and should have her pacemaker fitted in about 6 weeks time! ????

While I’ve been resting the girls have been busy sorting my desk out with my laptop for my uni works, and rigging up my new monitor and my projector so I can study from my wheelchair or my bed flat on my back. 

I planted some seeds to grow my own hanging basket flowers this year too then had a trip to my lovely  hairdressers at last! My hairs growing back in much better and thicker now and my skin is SO CLOSE to being healed now! 

 I also had a lovely visit from my Aunty Sheila & my cousin and partner who I’ve not seen for ages- so that was really lovely!

And to top the week off I managed a trip to the theatre last night! 

Don’t laugh but…. my first proper trip out post op…. (It’s been a long slow painful recovery this one! But I’m getting there) was to see…… MEAN GIRLS.. !!

Haha! ???? it’s not wasted on me that my first proper outing … I was sat there in my neck/thoracic brace watching Regina on stage in her halo/brace and wheelchair (after the bus scene!)

We still have a lot of money that I need to raise to pay back the debt for my surgeries so please consider holding a fundraiser or raffle or sponsored activity of some kind for me and entering the raffle!
