Unfortunately I broke my neck at the end of February. This means that I am now wearing what is perversely called a “halo”, basically a metal structure screwed into my head to keep everything stable. Unfortunately I also suffered some nerve damage and still don’t have full feeling in my fingers or toes.
Things are improving slowly, but I am not expecting the Halo to be removed until the end of August. After that it will take some time for me to build up muscles etc again so I may not be out and about much until next winter.
In the meantime I have moved from north Wales and back to my native Yorkshire, so I hope to be taking photos of the north York moors and Yorkshire dales when I am finally up and about again.
Take care everyone, and have a good summer.
Get better!!!!!!!
So sorry to hear about your misfortune. I wish you a speedy recovery and I shall be looking forward to your Blogs in the meantime.
Have a very nice weekend…
Kind regards, Maria
Best of luck in your recovery. I’ll miss the Welsh blog, but will look forward to reading about Yorkshire, when the time comes.
Thanks to everyone for their good wishes.
I found your blog earlier today when I was searching for Bodnant Garden because I had visited the garden earlier this. I have really enjoyed your photos of Bodnant and the other places you have visited.
I am sorry to hear you are not well and wish you a speedy recovery.
Thanks CherryPie, it’s slow progress but hopefully things will turn out ok.
I have loved your beautiful photographs of Wales and look forward to seeing more of North Yorkshire when you are fully recovered.
Hello, Dalesman! This is just a note to say I hope your recovery is progressing and that perhaps in the future you will post some photos of Yorkshire. I’m still enjoying going back and looking through the Welsh postings. Best regards, Elizabeth
Hi Elizabeth, I’m glad that you enjoy looking back at the scenes of north Wales.
My broken neck appears to be almost healed but the nerve damage caused is not improving unfortunately. I have now moved to Devon so that I’m closer to my son.
I think my walking days are over but hopefully I will get out and about soon and see if the camera still works.
