M.I.A

Wow it has been a while since I last wrote a blog post. I think this has been the longest gap ever. I am still about but a combination of trying to manage my health mainly the abdominal wound (which I still have and is still not healing) and trying to still do all my advocacy and research work has been a challenge and I have been finding it very hard to concentrate due to a combination of the painkillers, being run down with my body fighting to try and heal, and fatigue. It has been horrible but I now have a plan with the plastic surgeons so hopefully the wound will heal soon and I can get back on my feet and do what I love again.

I have a few blog post ideas in my head so just need to the get the words from my brain to the screen!

I am a nurse and passionate about all sports but due to brittle asthma I find myself on the sidelines more and more often. I use my experience with Brittle Asthma to raise awareness about asthma and how change needs to be made. I volunteer as a PPI lead for the Asthma UK Applied Research Centre who aim to reduce asthma deaths, reduce hospital admissions due to asthma and encourage good asthma control. I try not let asthma stop me. This is my life with asthma charting the highs and lows and different experiences due to having brittle asthma. It has shaped me as a person and dictated what I do in life but I won't let it stop me.
