The F Word!

The biggest thing for me in my recovery was fatigue! That was partly because it was unlike anything I'd come across before - prior to my accident, having a nap or some quiet time every so often was just not the way I did things. And it was also because, particularly early on, it had a tremendous impact on my day-to-day life - early on in my recovery, I wasn't able to sustain more than one hour's concentration basically on anything at all.

And there was simply no way of avoiding fatigue - I had to learn to deal with it! If I ever let fatigue build up, it would get a massive amount worse on me. So bad that I could barely do anything except stay in bed at home for days at a time!

Fatigue is one of the topics that I most want to write about on this blog. I want to write about the things I did that went badly and lead me to spend days at home. And I want to write about the things that went well for me and made me feel like my fatigue was nothing at all. I continue to look forward to telling you more on here.

Cheers,
Mike
