Welcome to my blog. It varies how regular I write posts here. 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 :)

Hold on a minute......

Or a few hours for this post to be completed tomorrow, as yet again, I have begun typing late in the day, yet I have plenty of ramblings to tell.
Re-reading my notes from this past week allows me to see that have made the same note twice. I have got annoyed by going down the high street and being ignored by shop publicists who pester everyone else. I do not get stopped, and given a flyer, because to be quite honest, it feels like i am being disregarded as a human being. Fair enough, they could be giving away entries to a competition to win a parachute jump, they see me in a wheelchair and immediately rule me out.
Realistically though, there is probably no parachute jump offer, but even entry into their shop (whoever/wherever), is probably troublesome, so i would be a 'problem' for them, not worth tackling. Grrrrrrrr.


I post the above video as my Ipod (on 'shuffle) has just played this legendary tune - Jeff Buckley, Hallelujah(L Cohen).
A small piece of perfection.
