Hello

[Idris]

I'm Idris. Obviously this is not my real name. It's a Doctor Who thing.

I've been blogging for years about my life and the things I like, which includes some of the experiences of looking after my Mum who has PSP. But that's only got a readership of a few dozen interested friends. To write about my experiences as a carer to an audience of people who know exactly what it's like, or want to find out more, will be a really great opportunity.

I just hope I won't be too boring....

Someone who starts with "a Doctor Who thing" could never be boring...!

Thank you, glad I've got fellow fans on here!

Hello Idris, welcome to HealthUnlocked. Thank you for joining. I am sure your blogs won't be boring...I think this will be a great place to not only let off a bit of steam, but allow others to see that they are not on their own. Happy blogging

[Idris in reply to PSPA_DebbieB]

Letting off steam, yes, definitely. I just hope it doesn't become JUST that, as I've got quite a lot of steam at times! It will be nice to know that people who understand are reading, though.

Definitely won't be boring! I look forward to reading your blogs!!

[Idris in reply to HannahDaykin]

Thanks, and I look forward to getting to know a few people who are in a similar situation to me.

Hi Idris look forward to following your blogs. You sound like you have a good sense of humour - you need it with this illness. I immidately thought of the drinks advert - I drink Idris when I am dry!
