Here are my top life lessons I wish I’d learned earlier 😊. Before you read, I must point out thatContinue reading “The A Word: 9 life lessons we learn too late!”

In this month’s blog, I’m going to chat about miracles. Well, not exactly miracles, but it feels like a small miracle to me, and even better, it’s backed by science. When I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease affecting my spine, I was convinced I’d end up in a wheelchair by the time I wasContinue reading “The big secret revealed! How to live your best life”

In my opinion, Cornwall is the most beautiful place in the world. Well, I haven’t been to all the beautiful places in the world, but Cornwall must be up there with the best.

Apologies, it’s been a while; I’ve been incredibly busy. In the past, when anyone asked me what I was busy with, I used to say “stuff”.  So, to sum up, in the last 7 weeks since my previous blog, I’ve been busy with stuff 😊.  We’ve also been on an amazing 3-week road trip throughContinue reading “Under Pressure?”

In the “olden days”, Dr Hunter visited our house with his leather case and stethoscope when IContinue reading “Wired and Tired!”

Hello everyone, and welcome to my blog. It’s a tale of two halves, the past and the future.  I was intrigued to know the number of times I’d been asked the question I’m going to answer in this blog, so I counted and can officially confirm it’s 74. Over the last 6 months, 74 peopleContinue reading “The A Word: A tale of two halves”

Happy New Year, everyone, wow! 2022 is my 60th year; I never thought I’d make it, but here I am. 😊 Every month, I get many questions, not just about my life with AS, but all sorts of stuff. I try to answer as many as possible, but my response is often brief.  I’ve pickedContinue reading “Damn, I’m getting old!”

This month’s blog has taken on a slightly different format. I’ve written a little ode, which I hope you enjoy. It does have a point, which I’ll get to later. The Fake Psychic Three years ago At a village fair A Psychic called out Hey, you “beware.” Me? I said Why what’s in store SitContinue reading “Don’t Judge!”

I want to start this week’s blog by saying a big thank you. My last blog was the 2nd top read on 8th October.  Now, I appreciate that it’s only 1 day in October, but I’ll take that anyway 😊. I know I’m a bit late again this month, and where have I been, youContinue reading “Gotcha!”
