Welcome to my blog. I post on this, roughly once a week (it does vary). I sustained a 'Traumatic Acquired Brain Injury', and a six month coma from a 'road traffic accident' whilst cycling, in October 2006. I spent the following 4 years (22-26yrs old), in a combination of hospitals and rehabilitation homes. Now, I have been living independently in Surbiton, England since October 2010. This blog begun life in December 2010, as i realised that there are many people worldwide that i want to share experiences with. I know that, as a wheelchair user, I am obviously not as mobile as i wish, so, use the internet to connect to you. I enjoy letting my thoughts represent through type. I type honestly. As numerous readers, as well as email recipients, will understand, I find typing to be very therapeutic. Thank you :)

Musical highlights - Rachael Yamagata

A female artist that I have paid a lot of attention to is Rachael Yamagata.  I first discovered her in 2004, whilst at university, and in a relationship, so I am annoyed. I am annoyed because I have not seen her live. I feel that perhaps I should have seen her early on (pre-accident). I could do in the future, it won’t be the same, but hey.

Anyway, she has released a double album entitled ‘Elephants… Teeth sinking into heart’. I was always going to pay this release attention, as it is her first release in a few years. Not exactly full of number 1 singles (but then, what is?), I personally find it ideal background music. The long album lasts for a good duration and always leaves me in a good mood, by the end.
