Well I hope you all had a fabulous Christmas. .... We did, but were all full of Colds, and I have had the worst week of pains yet, with my levels NEVER dropping below 17 / 10 and at the worst so far it reaching as high as 22 / 10, These are not wildly exaggerated figures, these are genuinely how I would describe them to my Pain Consultant, This is the problem with severe Nerve Damage or Neuropathy,
On many occasions during the last week I came close to biting off my Tongue. .... which would be difficult as I have no Teeth !
The feeling that my time is coming faster than expected has been very very strong, I have discussed sudden Death with Wendie, and how best to deal with it,
On the Positive, our new young man Pork Butt has brought much Sunshine to our Lives, especially to mine, He is so delightful, and gives just a Little something extra to Live for and to fight for, So getting him as been a great success already !
I have Cellulitus again on both legs, and my feet and lower legs are swelling to near 3 times normal, and I have Ulcers developing again, We nearly spent Christmas Day in the Walk In Centre at the Leicester Royal Infirmary but as I saw my GP on monday, we have decided to wait until this Monday and see her again unless things worsen,
Do you guys realise the power of Support, and Love, because you all give so much of both, and help me in the darkest and most difficult moments, when my Pain is at it's worst, and with you all, and my wonderful Family, and the Beautiful Pork Butt to help I have the will to fight for as long as possible. .... Even if or when the Pains get Worse,
The Snow late Boxing Day Evening certainly didn't help with the Pain, and Big Brave Wendie REFUSES to go outside until it's completely cleared. .... She REALLY HATES the stuff !
Well there's probably much more to tell you, but for now I'm tired, and worn out by fighting the pains, so for now. Happy New Year, and take care in the awful wintery conditions,
All Our Warmest Love.
With Big Sloppy Doggy Hugs and Kisses
Kevin, Wendie, Delta and Pork Butt
