During the long months of recovery post accident (March 2015), I was at first unable to do anything other than read or listen. I couldn't hold up a magazine I couldn't speak when I first woke up from the coma...I had a tracheostomy in place so voice box was inactive I was being fed liquid nutrients & was hooked up to 6 or 7 tubes to keep me alive. The ventilator hoses were very very frightening & the trachy was overwhelming the whole lot I'd liken to being underwater & unable to breathe just not coping & in the most frightening situations I had ever encountered. But somehow one gets through.
I've decided to WRITE. Write it all down now I am this far away from the day I basically lost my life. I want to write it down as therapy for my life from here on out....I want to write it down it is cathartic to my recovery & it is a revelation to put it mildly.
"Beach"
But right now I want to share some of the things I've achieved in my creative life...my craft...one of the things that brings me great joy that I feared I wouldn't be able nor care to do & how I was scared things would change after the coma & all the rest...that maybe things would change & I'd no longer want to do the things I used to.....or maybe not actually even 'like' those things anymore. This on it's own was frightening....
