Checking In

Checking In

I thought I would start a thread for myself and other members to check in. I thought also needed a thread for myself after being in hospital recently too. Hope its helpful for others too.

I had not so bad today, my anxiety levels are less and feeling a bit more energentic which I think is good.To me that is a good sign. I have start to put my recovery plan in to action from my hospital admission. Tomorrow I think my staffy dog will be needing surgery, she had had another mast cell tumour. I truly feel for her, she has been fighting this cancer for almost four years, she is so strong and courgeous.

This week I have a specialist appointment twice and seeing my other Doctor once this week. I think with me and Kira I am going to have a busy week.

Re: Checking In

Yes I would be thrilled to go to a coffee shop to meet someone to chat. I guess i have to be relaxed to be approachable.

Wow what a wonderful way to put it @Zoe7

Re: Checking In

Is there maybe a walking group in your area that you could get involved in @Everan - that would help with the social interaction and fitness as well.

Re: Checking In

That's a good idea. I think it's coming together a bit more. I just need to do take a few more steps and i might feel like i enjoy it and other peoples company.

Thanks@Zoe7 so much for talking about it. It has been very supportive today.

Tag me anytime @Everan and if I am around I am more than happy to chat with you Let me know how you go today - even if it is just a walk yourself to get out of the house - that would be a great first step
