So this is my blog about my health for those that are interested are have asked. The reason I have done this is because every time I meet a new person on the net we always get to a point where they ask what job do you/I do or how do you make a living. That results in me saying I don't work then they ask why and I tell them for health reasons and of course then I have to explain all that and can take me forever. Don't get me wrong I in know way mind telling ppl and understand there curiosity. But it dose get a bit repetitive having to explain things over and over again. So if you have been given this link that's probably because you are asking questions that I have answered a million times all ready. When I was young be for 11 I was in and out of hospital for one thing are another. But nothing to bad and was things I made a full recovery with. When I was 11 I had a virus that was called "transfermiliters" <--- Spelling for that I am 100% sure is wrong. What the virus did is in the space of 48 hours I think (don't remember that much as at the time I was young and was a bit out of it) paralyzed me from wast down. I could not walk are even go to the toilet. I had to have a catheter in for that. It did go as far as my lungs but thankfully it stopped be for I was unable to breath as that would have meant I would not be here now. The doctors at the time had only ever known one other women to have had what happened to me and to my knowledge she remains in a wheelchair to this day. They told me I was lucky to be alive and that I would never walk again. I did walk again but it took yeas of physio, hard work, sweet and tears. It was a year nearly be for I could go anywhere with out a chair and I would say about 6 moths after that be for I could go anywhere with out my zimmer frame. The fist time I went back to school was with a zimmer frame and ye as you know kids can be cruel and them little fuckers rept the shit out of me big time. I was pushed to the flow very easily has I had no balents so was a sitting duck. But I have know moved on from all that and a stronger person then I was. The problem with all this is I was recovering slowly but surly but my right hand side and leg grow back faster then my left. So I started to walk with a limp. Eventually I left school and started to work. It was a physical job working in a kitchen. I started to get back ace. I thought it was because I was on my feet all day with a limp. So I took my safety shoes into the hospital and asked them to put a rise on the left one so I would walk even. But the doctor there asked to look at my back and then I discovered that I had sclerosis of the spine. This is a curviercher of the spine. My spine is like an "S" shape. So at 18 years old I had to go into hospital and have meager surgery then after 3 months in hospital on traction with this thing like a halo screwed into my scull. Then I had to have another 9 hour operation to put rods in my spine to hold it in place. If I had not had this it would have eventually gone so for over that I would be in a chair. My spine dose press on to one of my lungs so I do get out of breath and tied faster then I should. After all that I had to have something called a fixator in my left leg to lengthen it. This was in my leg for 9 moths and it lengthened it by 6 center meters. All this in the space of 2 years. I had really had enough of the hospital and things sticking out of my leg. So when I discovered that I would still walk with a limp I did not wont them to do anything else but to leave me alone. The fixator I had in was only able to go up to 6 center meters you see. I would say I where a rise in my show about 4 center meters. With out that rise I get really bad back pain and I am not able to go very far at all with out it. I have a deformity and my back is very noticeable with out any top on. I still can not feel a lot in parts of my leg and would never have dinner on my knee as I would not know if it was burning or not. My left leg is also very weak and all thou I have tried to strengthen it nothing seams to work and it dose jump around and go into spasoms at night if Ive done to much in the day. So am not totally disabled but not totally fit ether. I can walk all be it not strait, but "can" is the operative word. Its frustrating cos some days I feel like I could take on the hole world but soon get very tired. I am always the fist to wont to go home from a night out. When you walk with a limp and have a spine that's twisted all over the place it makes things herder work then they should be. Things that you would take for granted like a walk along the park really leve me repeat out. So if there is anything else you would like to know about me please do ask. I really don't mined. just at least I well not have to tell you all of the above :)I hope this explained most of it but if it did not then as I say just ask, I have filed most of it in so they cen't be a lot left to answer :)

This is basically what I had scrod into my skull for 3 moths in hospital.
To say that I was ecstatic to be rid of that would be an under statement.

This is what my back looks like now.

This is a similar fixator to what I had in my leg for 9 months. And ye you guessed it its not a very comfortable thing to have in your leg. And you have to clean the pins every day to stop them from getting infected. That hurt every time.
