My Health Takes a Tumble
In Oct 2021, I underwent ptyroidectemy. Thankfully, surgery went well. However, complications arose the very next day, and I was wheeled into the emergency operating theatre, twice, on the same day.
Henceforth, I began my slide down the proverbial slippery slope. Jack & Jill were of no match as I stumbled and tumbled towards my first heart attack. Four other episodes followed, and the final one culminated in a stroke.
The years 2022 and early 2023 saw me popping in and out of hospitals. It was as if I had hopped onto a carousel of specialists and specialist clinics.
In 2022, I fell, twice, which resulted in multiple fractures on both my feet. I was crushed. These overlapping occurrances left me feeling very defeated. It felt as if the Universe had an agenda against me, thus depriving me of any chance of fully recovering from the many unfortunate incidents. Depression, insidiously, began to creep in.
