You'll Never Walk Alone

A friend reminded today that I hadn't updated my blog in yonks!
Yes that is true, what happened to the time between December 2006 to May 2007? It was spent trying to get better I am told. It seemed to have gone quickly, though I remember during the months when I was in hospital, the seconds seemed to crawl by slowly, along with every slow painful movement that I managed to muster with my PM-inflicted body.

Today, I managed a feat which I am proud of. It was a case of "Heave and Hoe...Here we go..." I pulled myself up from a lying position in bed! Most of us would take this simple daily action for granted, but it was gratifying! It was like learning to stand again, or learning to take that first step after months of being bedridden or wheelchair-bound! It didn't matter that I was nearly blue in the face, nor did it matter that my arms felt like they were about to give way. The amazing sense of achievement gives one that much needed boost that things will be okay soon. Time has a different definition when one is struck with a chronic illness.

To celebrate this new achievement, and also to congratulate LFC on their Champions League semi-final win, I'm compelled to put up this returning post with:

When you walk through a storm,
Hold your head up high,
And don't be afraid of the dark.
At the end of a storm,
There's a golden sky,
And the sweet silver song of a lark.
Walk on through the wind, Walk on through the rain,
Though your dreams be tossed and blown..

Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart,
And you'll never walk alone.......
You'll never walk alone.

Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart,
And you'll never walk alone.......
You'll never walk alone.


I know I'll never walk alone again, I'll be grateful for every step I take. And I will update this site soon enough..
