It was around this time last week I was quite worried and concerned. I was leaving for hospital to have day surgery to repair and fix the damage I’d done to my ankle.

With the support of family and friends I’m working to re-build myself, re-build strength, move onwards and upwards, literally get back on my feet.

To those of you who I’ve confided in, those who have provided support and to those who’ve offered messages of support and visited me, Thank you.

While the path ahead still looks daunting I know I can do this and the way everyone has rallied, particularly my family to my help is amazing. I look forward to the time when this is a distant memory.

Around October 2011 I began the journey to get my life back, being in fitness and health. In time this will just be a bump on the road.

Thank you for being part of it.
