About the hundreth Blog

Well this is about the hundreth blog ive had (ok ok thats not entirely true) but Ive had quite a few. Everytime I try and start a new one I either completely forget about it or completely forget all the log in details  -woopsie!! This time I am going to try and keep on top of this one - started on the 5th of October 2010 and me Im aged 27! Well 27 going on 80 with the state of my body, not the way it looks but the way it behaves and im not even joking.

Right now I am Homeless and Jobless (jobless because I am actually registered disbaled) although you wouldnt know this half the time when looking at me but I suffere with 2 main conditions. Myalgic Encephalopathy and Fibromyalgia which im not going to bore you with the details, there is plenty of info on the net if people are interested! I also have a couple of other bits and bobs wrong with me just to make it even better, Im greedy you see! I try and keep busy with a few things, one of which is charity work, I am currently running a project for the children's charity Post Pals, you can read about the project at our website:
http://www.postpalspillows.com/ I absolutely love the project and its going very very well. I have done other bits and pieces of Charity work in the past including mentoring young people for the Prince's trust and also working with children and young adults with Autism. I love learning about all things medical and one day hope to become a paediatric nurse. I am due to start a health and social care degree in Feb after 2 times of postponing ti, hopefully this time I will actually begin the course! A lot has happened to me in my life but really am not going to go into details but sometims I do wonder how I am still here, I guess you find in life you are stronger than you think!

Going to leave it at that for now because for one my hand bloody hurts now!

Will update again soon, take care for now xx

About Me

My photo
Im 27 and originally from a Village just outside the New Forest called Hythe - right near the sea! Im a real girly girl and love shopping, bags, shoes, getting hair done and beauty treatments, Fashion and make up! Unfortunately I am poorly and have been diagnosed for nearly 4 years with 2 conditons - Myalgic Encephalopathy and Fibromyalgia plus a few other medical problems I am often in hospital either as an inpatient or out. I dont let these conditions stop me from doing the things I want to do and enjoy in life but sometimes I dont have a choice as they can be very dibilitating and restricting, but one day I will acheive my life time goal and become a paediatric nurse or a midwife. I did get accepted into university last year but once again the doctors said my body wasnt ready for it. I am due to start a health and social care OU course towards a degree in Feb 2011 which is something to look forward to. I love to do volunteer work where I can and have previously worked for The Princes Trust and a social club for children and young adults with Autism/Aspergers. I currently now volunteer for an amazing Charity called Post Pals - www.postpals.co.uk
