This is simply who you are now . . .said the Doctor

Here a update on who l am now . . . Warm greetings from Mediterranean.
Recently have been through further deconstructing, as faith journey moves on in personal life.

The time came to leave colliery town near Newcastle ,harsh impoverished part of north east England.
It felt Sad to depart in some ways,which was correct but I been in 3 quite different, but incredible work practices.Moved there in July 2007. From a position near London,where been most of this Millennium.
As the Church based Youth worker for around five+half years we had great times.
Later was with Northern area,pastoral responsible huge area, large staff, volunteers ,few workers were paid.
The very latest position up in far north Esconia highlands and Islands Settlements.
Work well suited for. Then Damm this illness.

However feeling inside me it too long, further too far away, illness visited ?
Bringing slightly over two years ago complex issues . 
Like previous past

 
What happened along this period was heart issue resulting in triple heart bypass.
Well the operation felt like a success but there was identified two issues too dangerous operate on,resulting in me getting tired, plus mild issue with breathlessness. Adjusted with challenges.

Recently since last March had a 'resimed' machine to get Air in my system,
As testing showed have approx 26 episodes throughout the day.

All reads bit dramatic but 3/4 them do not notice,all but 2 them body quickly adapts. Occasionally and infrequently it gets problematic,intense breathing issue, uncomfortable pain.
After last two months of through examination and testing the team around my cardiac issue looked at all findings,s results are agreed.

The issue l have will not be operated on the Surgeon made a decision in 2013 
no evidence for that to change.

Behaviour around my non atypical issue can be dealt with through medication and current lifestyle choices. All l am complient with. So eat meat only two days week ,walk great deal,life healthy,no smoking,actually seldom drink alcohol but the lethargy and breathlessness along with the need for 'resimed usage', is part of 'who l am now'.

Further chat with nurse highlighted that the political issue around work further and employment, struggle people with such issues have to resolve,pointing to a time when l would not be expected to seek employment. 
This is me.

Love to return to work  . . .seek opportunities  . . .Will the DDA  . .(disability discrimination act).  .
could be, should be useful. 

That is become my goal in near future.

MAYBE WE WON`T MEET AGAIN

. . . she got a postcard in the mail
That just said Heaven,with a picture of the ocean and the beach
The simple words he wrote her
Said he loved her
How he'd hold her if his arms would reach
Wish you were here, wish you could see this place
Wish you were near,Wish I could touch your face
The weather's nice, it's paradise
It's summertime all year and there's some folks we know
They say, "Hello, "
I miss you so, wish you were here"
