Remember me?
Remember me & my photos?
I disappeared from the beginning of November but am now about 50% back to normal and hope to get out taking photos again. Where did I disappear to? Well, I was in intense pain and the cause of the pain was totally mis-diagnosed by a doctor. The result? I spent a month with very little sleep, little food and could not lie down to rest or sleep. I lost 12 kilograms. Then came the rescue. On arriving at Palmerston North hospital the real cause of my problem was diagnosed within an hour. I then spent 8 days being treated by the respiratory specialists for an infection in my lungs . They have my deep gratitude and admiration for their speedy diagnosis, treatment and long-term support. I won’t mention what I think about the doctor who told me I had torn a muscle in my back, just that as a result of his diagnosis the infection had a free month to enjoy unrestricted growth in my lungs.
