bit of a bump today as boredom set in after the busy day yesterday. Lack of taste also made a trial of which coffee tasted better fail as all tasted of nothing much, I really hope the taste buds come back some what, I never really appreciated spending money on some tasty stuff. Even a chewy mint had to be aborted mid swallow as too big (even when chewed). Forced myself out to take dog for a walk in the rain but lack of real exercise has hip flexors irritating me now and i am only walking!). Difficult to determine this road to recovery - is it getting off the pain relief first - I assume so - then getting rid of the feeding tube so I can have some independence and go places. Worried about being able to enjoy a pint of beer again - 4 months without leaves me pining somewhat, and getting social life back on track is a concern. Work being really good - I am due to change jobs this summer - they are looking into where best to place me, I am after a challenge but pensive that this recovery may hamper my effectiveness in any new role. Family and friends remain supportive but combatting Groundhog Day is very hard, especially as the drugs prevent me from doing anything too much with the grey matter. Apparently my blog is helping others going through similar treatment so I am pleased about that. Not wanting to sound morbid but at least I am here to write it... I look forward to tomorrow, some decent sport on TV and an afternoon out with the family.
