Mathilda - you would be more than welcome in our disabled swimming lessons/sessions. We all know and accept that all of us have different differences. Its done me good to get out there and at least try, slow walks with the dogs werent exactly groundbreaking when it comes to getting fit. I miss my old working body. I would be lying if I didnt admit to myself, that were it all still working, I still would be criticising myself as to how I look. You wouldnt want me next to you at the gym Mathilda - I have a tendancy to fall. You get in enough pain, and you realy dont give a shit. I would rather be lighter, because being overweight in surgery is a few grains added to the death side of the scales. I could also benefit from a decent haircut to be honest - but thats the price of a vet consult and a course of antibiotics. When I came out of head surgery I slurred that I must look like Divine - Oh no dear, I was told, youre not that glam - you look more like Sideshow Bob. I cut the other side back to even it up - frightened that if I went to a hairdresser and had my hair washed, my skull might just slide off.
Your weight isnt what you judge yourself by is it luvvie? What came through to me was despite everything - you have raised healthy well balanced children - no easy feat. I am pretty sure that I would enjoy a stroll and a natter with you if we happened into each other dogwalking in the woods.
