As I write this, I am underneath two blankets, one is heated the other is not, the nonheated one is over my head.

The heated blanket under the quilt helps to warm me faster. It gets pretty hot under here. But the heat helps enormously with pain, after being out in the cold.

I have not long gotten back after an over night trip, which has required me both to sleep in my wheelchair and to not get changed for more than 24 hours. Rail replacement buses and the joys of travelling on a Sunday, were also part of the, adventure.

I plan to write more about this in a future post, because it’s been an experience, as it usually is. But right now, I need to try to chill for an hour or so until the carers come and I can get into bed and properly relax. I just don’t have the energy, unsurprisingly, to go into detail about all this right now.
