Kings Open Day - 04/07/09

It was my first open day that i attended as an outpatient and actually being involved in the day. Unfortunately whn i got to Kings my headache and nausea kicked in and typical me forgot my meds at home. It was getting worst that not even fresh air or water was heping so i went up to Todd ward and thankfully they gave me some anti sickness and paracetamol which eventually kicked in a bit.

Apart from feeling off i did still enjoy the day speaking to people, seeing the staff with their families and their kids who all seeemed to enjoy themselves taking part in the activities. Also thanks to Sarah and Alfie who i spent most of the day with. I probably wasn't the best company but i appreciated their company together with Tanja and Gill. Am already looking forward to next year when i hope to do the abseil this time.

Life's Blessings

I know i seem to complain and feel down about my life often as it's very hard to stay positive but i do thank God everyday for all the blessings in my life. I will be eternally grateful to both my donors and their families for their wonderfull gift as well as for all the friendships i've made throughout my journey. I often feel so lucky to have met such wonderful people and found alot of love and support.

Hospitals are suppose to be a place which people fear the most but for me it's like coming home to family and friends everytime i go to Kings. I couldn't have asked for a better team to have look after me and plus all the other people i have met along the way such as patients, staff and families.

I just want to express my heartfelt thanks to some very important people who have touched my life in a significant way and has supported and loved me from the day i met them.

First of all my 2 Todd Ward Mummy's Linda and Emily, you both have been such a pillar of strenght to me, you're aways there when i'm down and there through the happy times too. I love you guys so much.

Carl, Eva, Joy & Louise, just some of the staff on Todd who not only looked after me in hospital but became good friends.

Prof Heaton & Prof Rela, for saving my life numerous times. I'll try and stay out of theatre for this year at least.

Jacomi, Rachel, Louisa R & Holly, thanks for keeping me sane and for being there when i ddn't know who to turn too.
