After a few days of physical, mental and spiritual exhaustion, I woke today feeling slightly wonderful.
No pain, no aches, nothing. I had 8 straight hours of sleep and awoke feeling so good.
Today then, the average level has been good, so we decided to go outdoors awhile.
I can't remember the last time I left the house and not be going to a hospital, so it was quite a special moment when Chrissy drove me to the sea front with the new wheelchair.
A new role. New roles for both of us, actually, and the easiest way to adapt to being the guy in the wheelchair is to worry instead about her adapting to her new role.
So I did that, and she worried about me.
Job done. I'm just another guy.
So, Chrissy, being my very own Strong Girl Bong Sun, pushed me a halfmile up the coast, and a halfmile back, with iced cream and photos at the halftime post.
It was tiring, but I loved it all. So nice to see the seafront too. Children playing, ladies on chairs on the beach with their coffees at the ready. Couples in trainers. Children with babies to look after.
A beautiful day.
