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 :)

absolutely terrible




A time for us all to try to relax, be happy and to celebrate life. I have restrained from sending ‘old-fashioned’ Christmas cards this year, sorry. Although they may add to the festive atmosphere of each home, I cannot bear the putrid, overload of some ‘decorations', so my mind is feeling messed. Each year, we 'get' more and more. Such a mass attain, by everyone, scares me. The greed of humanity, may be an invisible, suicidal weapon. Dangerous.

Honestly, I am later than most to feel a ‘Christmas mood’, if at all, this year (it is Tuesday 13th, typing this note). The ridiculous, very similar, almost monotone seasons we now experience, make me sad. Will it ever be cold, or hot, in our lifetimes, again? We have taken, and continue to take, far too much. Consume, consume, consume… nothing left!
We are turning our heads, because we cannot bear the truth. Unfortunately, the truth exists...

"The truth is, it's absolutely terrible,"

Global disaster...
A humongous problem, that our world is contently ignoring, because people do not want to disrupt their Christmas festivities. I am not really sure that everyone is aware of what is going on, as long they have a hideous celebration of a capitalist Christmas, they do not care about the rest of the world! 
Why do we shut our eyes to such misery caused, by fellow humans?




UNICEF  - txt ‘blanket’ to 70002 - £3 per month
Please show humanity. Support an international charity which is offering aid to victims of this war. 
I texted 'BLANKET' to 70002, adding £3 to my monthly phone bill, supporting the aid.
Please do what you can. 

Dec20 = 6th birthday of blog 🎉 
Almost the Winter Solstice (21st). Almost averaging 7,000 page views per year!

'Oh, you should use a dating-app'
A suggestion, that people always give to me, if the relevant topic is discussed. People assume that it can be such an easy route. No, it isn't. No-one is attracted to a wheelchair. A wheelchair-user, always 'comes along in a wheelchair'. You cannot lie in your 'online profile'. Therefore, when I state in mine, that 'I use a wheelchair', people think of the worst. I am 32, ok not very old, but not young either. Ten years.
I need to keep my mind from falling in despair...
COFFEE!!!
