About once a month I get an email from women asking about my experience of the plating operation for Sympysis Pubis Dysfunction (Pelvic Girdle Pain). I absolutely hate not being able to write back and tell them that life is wonderful for me now, that painkillers are a thing of the past and that havi...

Following two years of Disability Living Allowance, earlier this year I was posted a renewal claim form. I diligently filled this in, keeping the information extremely similar to that given in my original claim, adding only my new arthritic wrist problems. Sent the form back and did not worry: my he...

It’s never a good thing when your hospital appointment confirmation letter comes with a map attached Glamorgan House – the land of dermatology. I arrived at 17:00, for a 17:20 appointment, and was thrilled to be out by 17:45. The consultant I saw seemed pretty good (though, I’ll tell you now...

As of last Thursday I have been aware of something terrible happening in the Cardiff academic community, namely that Cardiff University has decreed an utter closure of the Humanities division of the Centre for Lifelong Learning. Disgusting. Earlier this year the same university openly celebrated 125...

The operation itself went well! I managed to get through my hospital stay without an allergic reaction (quite an achievement for me, I will admit here and now) and went home within the week. Largely this was due to my stubborn streak and hating to be apart from my family. Unfortunately I got a parti...

I write to you now from the stolen glories of my lovely manbeast’s computer. Shh, he is out buying me about 3 buckets of various fruits, so I am repaying him by updating my online world. It has come to this as my trusty laptop is suffering from a virus at the moment and Michael hasn’t successful...

Unfortunately, I haven’t been away relishing in the majesty of a miracle cure to all my pains. Alas, I am still technically a disabled person and every day it seems a little more real, what with the sleepless nights and days of excruciating pain. Yeah, they’ll remind you of your disabled status ...

I feel like I should spend some time dusting away the cobwebs hanging around here as fully as I am able! Grr. Such a lot has happened in my life during the time I have not been able to get online. The main change being that we have finally been able to change our living situation so that we live in...
