update from bronwyn

Hi there viewers,

I just wanted to briefly blog to y'all. I am now on to my second day where I have not suffered from significant bouts of VM symptoms which has been very nice as you can imagine.

I have very much enjoyed the freedom of being out and about. After I saw my parents off for their Europe trip on Friday morning I lay down on a park bench in Leicester Square and read the metro newspaper for an hour until the shops opened. (It also meant it gave me a decent rest and allowed for my ears to decide to unblock). It was just so pleasant. I wandered around having terrific trouble finding the places I wanted to find—but it didn't matter! It was just fun to be in the sunshine and to have the energy to be wandering. I eventually booked some theatre tickets and purchased a recorder from a music shop. I came home and gave myself a darn good lesson on the recorder—you have to be pretty fit and well to be in the mood for that!

Thank you so much for all you thoughts and prayers during these last weeks. And also those who have taken time to email, visit, or even use old technologies like sending cards, gifts and telephoning! At this stage I seem to be only getting the old headache at the very end of the day. I am still careful not to be on my feet all day and to have a few lie downs.

This is becoming not-so-brief so I shall stop as it is time for sleep. BB.
