Steady
Nedflat energy 2
Late, and writing anyway. Steady. That is the whole entry. Quiet. Injection Tuesday, mild Wednesday, fine by Thursday, and then a normal weekend. Aye.
Both bags, one go
Rinpleased energy 2
Ten minutes then I am asleep. Up the stairs at work twice without stopping at the landing. I stood at the top for a second like an idiot. Nobody saw. It counted. Tied…
Laces
Ozzyquietly delighted energy 5
Well then. Full shift on my feet and my knees did not stop me. That has not happened in about four years. Sat on the floor and played for an hour, and then got up.…
Three cool bags and a thermometer
Rillaorganised energy 2turning point
Quick one. Two lines a day in a paper diary. Date, and one thing. That is the entire system and it has twice changed a clinical decision. Solved cold storage…
No news
Romyflat energy 2
Short one tonight. Steady. That is the whole entry. Nothing to report. Writing it down anyway, on the theory that a journal made only of eventful weeks would give a…
Two sessions
Stellantired but good energy 5
Two sessions this week, both short, both done. Ren keeps saying that two a week for two years beats a perfect programme abandoned in March, and he is annoyingly…
Quiet
Taviasteady energy 1
Evening. Quiet. Injection Tuesday, mild Wednesday, fine by Thursday, and then a normal weekend. An unremarkable week. Ate, walked, worked, slept adequately. This is…
Off the floor
Annapleased energy 1
A brief account of the week. Sat on the floor and played for an hour, and then got up. That was the entire reason I started, and I have now done it. Walked into town…
Eight minutes and a chair
Noahtired but good energy 2
Eight minutes and a chair. That is the whole programme. Tuesday and Friday. I have done it for eleven weeks. Walked instead of the bus all week. Not a programme. Just…
A rough few days
Poppyrough energy 1turning point
Ten minutes then I am asleep. The nausea has a shape to it now. Thursday teatime it starts, Friday it peaks, Saturday afternoon it lifts. Once I could see the pattern…
She read the diary
Ashbrisk energy 3
Asked the question I had been avoiding for eleven years. She answered it in about ninety seconds and was completely unbothered. Took the diary in. She read it…
Standing in the kitchen
Catowired energy 5turning point
I told one person. Not my mother, not work. One person, and only because she asked me a direct question at the right moment. Three sentences, all useful. I want to…
Stayed for the company
Esmewarm energy 3
The facilitator stopped the room when four of us were talking at once and asked one person how she was actually doing. It changed the whole hour. Went for the…
The first one
Monervous energy 3turning point
Three things this week. The pharmacist talked me through it very fast and I nodded at all of it and retained about a third. I have written down the bits I remember…
No mask
Moraytired energy 2
The sleep has changed shape rather than improved. Different, not better, and I cannot yet tell whether I mind. Repeat study came back and the apnoea is much reduced.…
Nine minutes
Ottolineheard energy 1turning point
Took the diary in. She read it properly, which I had not expected, and changed the plan because of it. Iron and B12 both low. Treated. Enormous difference. She…
First dose, done
Romywired energy 5turning point
Late, and writing anyway. I want to write this down before I forget how frightened I was, because I suspect in three months I will not believe it. Twenty minutes of…
An unremarkable week
Ruthieflat energy 2
A brief account of the week. Steady. That is the whole entry. Quiet. Injection Tuesday, mild Wednesday, fine by Thursday, and then a normal weekend. Next paper Sunday.
She noticed first
Saoirseheld energy 1
She had a bad week and I had a fine one, and next month it will be the other way round. That is the whole mechanism. My buddy noticed something in my journal before I…
Circle tonight
Sarawarm energy 2
Circle tonight. Eight of us, an hour, and about eleven minutes of actual information. The rest was the point. Went for the practical answers and stayed for the…
She noticed first
Zebheld energy 1
Week in order: She had a bad week and I had a fine one, and next month it will be the other way round. That is the whole mechanism. My buddy noticed something in my…
Day one
Zoëhopeful energy 3
I want to write this down before I forget how frightened I was, because I suspect in three months I will not believe it. Twenty minutes of standing there. Then eight…
Standing in the kitchen
Brunowired energy 1turning point
So. First one done. I had been carrying the box around the house for four days like it was something I had borrowed and needed to give back, and in the end I did it…
Across the day
Fensteady energy 5
This week: Spread it across the day instead of trying to do it all at teatime and everything got easier. Greek yoghurt, eggs, and the limits of both. I have reached…
