  • Nothing to report

    Kez4 Oct 2024flat energy 1

    I nearly did not write this week because there was nothing in it. Then I thought about how much I have got out of other people's boring weeks. No news. The dog is…

  • Somebody new

    Lil4 Oct 2024warm energy 4

    Evening. Somebody new tonight, terrified, exactly where I was in the spring. I said the thing that had been said to me and watched it land. Circle tonight. Eight of…

  • Circle tonight

    Lu4 Oct 2024warm energy 2

    Quickly, before bed. Circle tonight. Eight of us, an hour, and about eleven minutes of actual information. The rest was the point. Somebody new tonight, terrified,…

  • Sunday night, four lines

    Mark4 Oct 2024held energy 5

    Ten minutes then I am asleep. Nobody has ever asked me how I was doing on a Wednesday before. Paired up. We text on Sunday nights, four or five lines each, and it has…

  • Stayed for the company

    Patrick4 Oct 2024warm energy 4

    A quiet week. Went for the practical answers and stayed for the company, which I gather is what everybody does. Somebody new tonight, terrified, exactly where I was…

  • No news

    Ted4 Oct 2024steady energy 1

    This week: No news. The dog is well, the weather has been foul, and I have taken my medication on the correct day for the eleventh week running. I nearly did not…

  • Told her

    Toby4 Oct 2024close energy 2turning point

    Hid the box for two months. Not sure who from, exactly, in a house this size. His son asked why he was not eating and he handled it badly, then better. My son asked…

  • No news

    Annika3 Oct 2024steady energy 3

    A quiet week. Quiet. Injection Tuesday, mild Wednesday, fine by Thursday, and then a normal weekend. Steady. That is the whole entry. Enough for now.

  • Off the floor

    Bunny3 Oct 2024pleased energy 1

    Evening. Swam. First time since school. Two lengths, badly, grinning. Slept flat. Whole night. Flat. Breakfast shift.

  • Day one

    Cass3 Oct 2024hopeful energy 2

    Notes for the week. Nothing has happened yet, which nobody had warned me about. I think I expected to feel something immediately, and instead I made a cup of tea and…

  • Awake at four

    Esme3 Oct 2024tired energy 1

    Repeat study came back and the apnoea is much reduced. Ten years of that mask. Vivid dreams, every night, the sort you have to sit up and shake off. Two other people…

  • Sunday lunch

    Gus3 Oct 2024awkward energy 1

    Sitting down to this properly tonight. Somebody asked what my secret was and I froze completely. Still working out what I want to say to that. Sunday lunch at my…

  • An unremarkable week

    Ike3 Oct 2024steady energy 2

    No news. The dog is well, the weather has been foul, and I have taken my medication on the correct day for the eleventh week running. I nearly did not write this week…

  • Off the floor

    Jonty3 Oct 2024pleased energy 3

    A brief account of the week. Got down on the floor and back up again unaided. I have not been able to do that since 2021 and I did it twice more just to check. Tied…

  • Quiet

    Lark3 Oct 2024flat energy 4

    Nothing to report. Writing it down anyway, on the theory that a journal made only of eventful weeks would give a false impression of the whole thing. An unremarkable…

  • Nine minutes

    Marnie3 Oct 2024frustrated energy 3

    Late, and writing anyway. Took the diary in. She read it properly, which I had not expected, and changed the plan because of it. She reduced one of my other…

  • Slept through

    Moray3 Oct 2024tired energy 1

    Right. 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…

  • Fewer, heavier

    Ned3 Oct 2024tired but good energy 1

    Late, and writing anyway. Walked instead of the bus all week. Not a programme. Just walking. Came back after a bad fortnight without trying to make up the lost…

  • I nearly did not write

    Priya3 Oct 2024fine energy 3

    Steady. That is the whole entry. No news. The dog is well, the weather has been foul, and I have taken my medication on the correct day for the eleventh week running.…

  • A rough few days

    Carl2 Oct 2024sore energy 1

    This week: Headache for three days running. It turned out I had barely drunk anything since Tuesday. Water, then a slow improvement, then feeling faintly stupid. The…

  • Grip

    Dora2 Oct 2024tired but good energy 5

    Three things this week. Walked instead of the bus all week. Not a programme. Just walking. Grip strength has gone off and I noticed it opening a jar before I noticed…

  • The limits of yoghurt

    Fen2 Oct 2024steady energy 1

    Greek yoghurt, eggs, and the limits of both. I have reached the limits of both. Was undereating without realising. The nurse asked a plain question about what I had…

  • Nothing to report

    Gigi2 Oct 2024steady energy 2

    Evening. Nothing to report. Writing it down anyway, on the theory that a journal made only of eventful weeks would give a false impression of the whole thing. Quiet.…
