Not bad going

11 years ago•21 Replies

Spent today putting together chest of drawers 4 ft really heavy and solid as a rock. Not bad going for someone with severe Emphysema, quite proud of myself. Don't need to exercise just do that everyday. Xxxx

Keep up the good work. I put a new rad fan on my car then done 4 hours at work including chopping kindling for an hour. Stage 4 I am. I feel like Stage 1 though. Not that I know what Stage 1 is like though !

I think the more you do the better you are to be able to do more things. I have been looking after my other half for about 6 weeks as she's been in bed ill ( Pulmonary embolism ) so I've been having to do more things around the house. She says I haven't looked so healthy for some time !

Well done Kimmy59, you have given us all hope . These jobs for us are almost like climbing mountains but everyone we conquer brings a good feeling and the strength to go on.

My husband and I make a very effective team - I can't build the things and he refuses to read instructions! Well done to you. x

Thanks everyone. Do feel good, I've had my friend helping sort things out in the house. I'm hoping the Azithromycin I've been taking for 2 weeks are working, at first they made me feel ill until someone on here suggested taking them first thing on an empty stomach. See team work. Xxxx
