Sunday morning

BOM dia amigos
Boa domingo

My space these days is not big but effective

The red chair is good to sit on and relax

The wheel chair takes me to the phisio and around where I want to go sitting

The support is for walking. I can walk with it’s support but not on my own

The brown part of the bed is to hold on to and do some exercises for the legs and glutes

This is my world at the moment plus of course when I go to the corridor and look out the window. There I see my gym and my parking lot

Yesterday I saw some people going into the gym. This feels like normal and is good for my soul.

I’m doing everything in my power to get well.

I found some films on YouTube, very old ones and they do make a difference 🤣

Have a great day my friends and enjoy the moment

Sending you love and light 😘🌹

It’s Friday

A cold morning
A new day and I hope it will be a good day

One day at a time is a goal to keep on track.

Sometimes it’s hard and sometimes easy

The alcoholic who uses the serenity prayer knows it can be difficult to stick to the plan

The same goes with normal people

It gets up and down but easier day by day

Being grateful for where I have already improved makes me feel better

Being strong, grateful and patient helps

There may be some hidden feelings coming to the surface who need to be addressed.

Most important is not to give up

Crying is ok

6th of February 2025

Today was a strange day

I cried in the morning

Thinking about never gonna be normal again and crying my heart out

Then I had to wait forever for the help to get out of bed and into the shower 🚿

There is lack of helpers today but that’s not my business

Anyway I felt alone and miserable

I cried and prayed to my ancestors to help me

I feel alone sometimes but that’s normal

I’m afraid of not going to be myself after this

It takes time to heal and it takes patience

Some memories popped up and made me sad

I went to the phisio and recovered there doing everything in my power to get well

It’s frustrating to look at the time I spent in the other place and I would have died there

Now I’m in montepio and I get phisotherapy 5 times a week and it helps

Being sad in-between is ok

Keep going

A new day has risen 🌹

The challenges are there and the strength is growing 💗

Yesterday I tried the stairs 💪 shaki and week but trying with the help of my phisotherapist

This was a huge challenge but that’s what recovery is all about, challenges and concouring them

Sometimes it takes a while but persistent is the key

One day at a time, patience and optimism, those are my goals

Believe in yourself is important and accepting the help makes it easier

Every day is a victory and I’m truly grateful 🙏

Have a good day my friends and spread the light and love around you.

The beautiful view from my bed
A new day ahead

Food for the soul – gratitude

Once again a new day has risen.

The new page 📄📃 is being written now

Yesterday I couldn’t find my room when I got back from the gym, on my own of course 🤣

Now I know where my room is

Now I have practiced to tell the lift to take me to floor 3

I’m seriously becoming myself again 🤣

Getting lost is definitely the real me
So

I wish you all a good day full of happiness and gratitude

Gratitude is a food for the soul

Being grateful makes you happy 🌹

The road forward

3rd of February 2025

BOM dia amigos e boa semana 🌹

A new day and a new page in the book of recovery

Yesterday was a huge victory

So managed to get myself into bed by myself

I had been sitting in the chair from morning to 5 o’clock and was tired and wanted to lie down

No-one came to help so I planned

Step by step I organised and eventually I was in bed.

Took of my clothes and put on the pyjamas.

I’m really happy to see the progress and

I’m not completely helpless

Today I go to the gym by myself

I know how to get the lift going 😂

And I won’t get lost 😂🤣

It’s easier now to stand up so everything is moving in the right direction for the grace of God

Have a good week my friends and remember to be grateful for the little things. They add up to be huge victory in the end

Gratitude

  1. February 2025

Just imagine

I was in Carregal do Sal 37 days and got worse day by day

I’ve been here in Montepio 17 days and already making huge progress

This is the difference between good and not good

Few days before I got the confirmation that I was going to Montepio I cried and begged my ancestors to help me

The next day a dear friend sent me a message and she told me about Montepio

I took it as a sign and wonderful people put in all the effort and got the room for me.

Those people are my saviours and I will never be able to pay them back, except just getting well and into my normal life again

I’m lucky to have them all in my life

As I have said many times, friends are like diamonds

I’ve got many diamonds in my life

I’m grateful and happy today

The sun is shining outside and the beautiful garden is smiling

I’m really becoming myself again

The second day of a new month

2nd of February 2025

BOM dia amigos e boa domingo

Another day has arrived

A new moment of optimism and hope

The tree is smiling calmly and wishing me a good day

Everything is quiet and the weather is good

Waking up and looking into the garden outside is a pure joy

Gratitude for the life and the road forward

One more day for recovery has risen

Yesterday was a good day but it’s gone and today is the now with more progress

Let love and light embrace you my friends

The miracle is happening

1st of February 2025 is a day I will remember

Today is a new month and a new week.
One day at a time is my goal. Every step is a miracle.

My mental health and attitude is positive and adds to the small victory

Each day is a miracle

When my favourite nurse told me she was happy to see the progress I knew I was going to be ok

I went by myself to the lift and took it down to the physio

I didn’t get lost 🤣

My favourite helper embraced me and kissed when I told her I would go to the gym by myself

It’s heartwarming when the people here who take care of me show me the love

There is so much I am grateful for

For the grace of God I’ll be ok again

Love and light is all around me 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

The last day of the month

31 st of January 2025

BOM dia amigos
It’s early morning and daylight not there yet

The last day of the first month of the year 2025

I’m happy with how it turned out in the last 2 weeks

Being stronger every day is the goal and approaching normal again

I’m grateful for those weeks, they have been interesting and challenging

Tomorrow a new chapter begins and the pages are empty at the moment but new one added each day

That’s how life continues like a river

One day at a time is all we need

The past is gone

The future is ahead

All we can control is now
Thinking positively and expecting the best is a good way to happiness

Sending you hugs and kisses my friends wherever you are in the world 🌹😘

Just woke up and it’s cold 🥶
