Health Problems

Post by Snow »

There are a lot of people here I "talk" to on MSN & Yahoo, and one of the most commonly asked questions is "where have you been" or "Are you avoiding someone", so to answer this I decided just to post it here.

As I am sure one or two of you know, I hurt my back a while ago and it has taken a long time to get anywhere near right, I knew it was bad when I couldn't get up to go to work without being in agony and my breakfast consisted of cigarettes, coffee and asprin!.......not in that order. Please bear in mind that to a certain extent I am a workaholic, so work IS more important to me than health, I have worked with a fractured ankle for three days before I thought of going for an xray! (Dipstick huh?)

Just as I thought I had gotten things back under control, at least to the point where I could walk and move with any degree of agility, I have a dumbass accident and fall down a flight of stairs....I mean picture it (without laughing too hard), me going feet first at breakneck speed down 13 steps! :cry:

To cut it short I can't stay in many positions for too long without being in considerable pain. I hope to be able to quickly browse my way through the page, but I certainly won't be using MSN/Yahoo to talk to people for hours on end for a while..... So where's the bad news in that I hear you all cry ;)

Still, I may be in agony as I write this but my sense of humour (twisted as it may be) is still intact and operating at its peak ;)

So for all those that send my PM's & Emails, don't be offended if I don't get back straight away, sometimes it takes me a while to get going, you will get a reply but maybe a little later than I had planned.

Thank you for your understanding and your patience.

:lol:

I was wondering what was up lately, but knowing you hurt your back and all, I thought you were still dealing with that one. Sorry to hear you should find someone to teach you how to walk down stairs properly, but that is what comes with age ;)

I hope you get better soon, and I look forward to "talk" to you again. Take your time, take care and don't try to rush things...
