Introducing Angel

Eeekkk this week we got a baby bunny from Freecycle! The man we got her off was animal mad- he had a dog, horse and at one point 60 rabbits!!! So he was giving his bunnies away to families :) when we arrived, there were 5 to choose from- 3 adults and 2 babies. Alex wanted a baby rabbit so we took the little black one. We've called her Angel Delight ;) but we usually just call her Angel lol. She's so mischievous! Can't resist a few pics of her- she's quite hard to see because her fur is so dark....









My chest is still holding out too, which is great :D my ankles and knee have started to swell again with the arthritis so on some anti-inflammatorys but thats the only thing that's really changed this week- so happss!! :D

And finally, congrats to my eldest cousin Michelle who is engaged!!!!!!

Holiday

Came back from my family holiday from Isle of Man on Saturday evening. It was so much fun, went with all my cousin's from my dad's side, so 14 of us in total. My mama used to live there when she was younger so it was nice for her to return to her old house and stuff :)

When we came back off holiday, we had to sort out buying a new car because my loyal old Tinny was too small for Alex to drive :/ It was an emotional farewell between me and Tinny :'(  </3


Yesterday I also had hospital. In my last blog I'd said how I felt as if I'd dipped very quickly, thankfully I then felt like had steadied over the holiday- think the sun helped :) It was my annual review follow-up appointment, which meant I saw the main consultant Dr Bilton. I was so shocked that my lung function HADN'T dropped from when I was discharged! Still 70%, plus I had put on weight- going from 45.6 to 47.4kg! Was really positive :D We decided on a plan to try and keep me off IVs for as long as possible, so fingers crossed it works. In the mean time, I'm going to enjoy my freedom and catch up with as many people as I can while everyone is back from uni and around at the moment :)

Lovesss xx

Wedding anniversary

I've been out of hosp for just over a week now and have gone back to my part time job :D My chest has sadly already declined, but I'm not really surprised because when the doctors discharged me, I wasn't at my best anyway! They just wanted to hurry me out because I'd been in for 3 weeks already and they like to have people in for only 2 really. Due to this quick dip, my appetite hasn't stayed great so I'm not sure whether I'm even putting on any weight :( I really need to get some scales so I can weigh myself!

The trial of the Vest has to be arranged with the people who made and supply them so I'm surrently waiting to hear from them as to when my trial will start. In the meantime, I'm going away for a week with my family and my cousin's to the Isle of Man :)

Last weekend was my cousin's bday and my aunty and uncle's 25th wedding anniversary. Luckily I was able to make it :D Here's some picsss...
