Sick Note

Apologies once again for abandoning my post (pun intended), but the little souvenir we returned home with from Sweden turned out to be Covid. We have enjoyed a smorgasbord of symptoms from fake sunburn to lost voice, fevers to exhaustion. I’ve spent the majority of the last three days asleep – but rest has worked its magic and, unless the virus has yet another surprise waiting for us, I’m cautiously optimistic that we are coming to the end of it.

As always, my MS has intensified my symptoms. Fortunately, my husband has managed to keep us fed and watered. Without him, I suspect I may have just shrivelled under the blankets, too tired to even fetch myself a drink.

I very much hope that you are all well and look forward to your company next week.

Much love, Karen x

    1. Thank you Linda – it’s been a bit of a doozy but only a teeny line left on the Covid test. At least we have the sunshine and the garden to console us! x

    1. Thank you – we are starting to feel human – just rather prone to napping. (Not really anything new my end!) xx

    1. Thank you Pete. Two weeks on, we are almost there and looking forward to re-joining the world! Having Covid mid-summer just feels wrong, but at least we can enjoy the outdoors. I hope you and yours are keeping well. xx

  5. Certainly not the souvenir you want! I hope you have got over the worst and are back enjoying your summer garden very soon.

    1. Indeed, it was not very hospitable of the Swedes!! Starting to feel human again and the garden has been our solace and the fresh air does us good! xx

    1. Thank you Karen. It’s taken a while, but we’re almost there! xx Hope we can get to the next picnic! xx
