2024 was a year of completely bizarre health challenges for me. Starting with getting bitten by a dog! It was being surrendered to the dog rescue, by all counts a lovely family dog, great with the little disabled child of the family, etc etc. However, just add trauma - DV and household split, dog couldn’t go to rental, clearly saw itself…
2024 was a year of completely bizarre health challenges for me. Starting with getting bitten by a dog! It was being surrendered to the dog rescue, by all counts a lovely family dog, great with the little disabled child of the family, etc etc. However, just add trauma - DV and household split, dog couldn’t go to rental, clearly saw itself as protector of small child and it simply flew through the door and latched onto my arm! I ended up with two nights in hospital, surgical washout, lots of antibiotics and 6 months of scar treatment!
Then a bout of pneumonia out of nowhere, and a CT angiogram picked up an abnormality in my lung which is very rare (the Interventional Radiologist who I was eventually referred to told me they are usually picked up AFTER people have a stroke!), but fortunately I will have repaired end Feb! I am so grateful for our public health system which has all sorts of problems (I work in health) but which comes to the party when you really need it!
2025 will bring retirement for me, which I can’t wait for. Work just gets in the way of my real life, but I am grateful for the earnings over the years. Although I only work 3 days a week, I can’t wait to give it up! More time with the grandkids and helping my kids out to ease their time stress. Their wellbeing means more to me than any job ever could.
