When exactly is 8th October? I've been waiting ages already. Can't it hurry up?
It's dangerous for someone in my situation to be wishing time away, but I can't resist. I'm like a child in the backseat of a car. Actually, I've always been like that, but now more so than ever. I just want to get there.
I need to remind myself that I might not like what I hear when I do, so best enjoy this time of ignorant unstatus.
I wish I could see this spell as a holiday. But I can't. The concerns of everyday life are creeping back in and troubling me. I feel a great pressure to be well again and functioning fully. But my body and mind aren't able for that yet.
I'll tell you what has been great: driving my daughter to school and telling stories. There was a moment, soon after I was diagnosed, that I thought I'd never do that again. You can imagine what it feels like to have had this returned to me.
The next time you hear from me, we'll know whether or not we won.
Roger
