I'm finally out of hospital after over a month inside, but they've told me it could take up to six months before I fully recover. Even then, there is one aspect of my life which will never quite be the same, but thats something I'm prepared to deal with. Were it not for the surgery, I may very well not be alive today and at the very least would have had next to zero quality of life (I got hit suddenly and unexpectedly by an acute condition, again, not that comfortable going into the specifics). I'm genuinely grateful to be alive and once fully fit, want to live each day to the full. It feels great to be back home in familiar surroundings with my home comforts. I don't know how hospitals are in other countries but I was starting to feel very trapped and institutionalised. I will say this much, I quite honestly saw and heard things that not just happened to myself but to other patients that I think will genuinely haunt me for the rest of my life. To quote a NOFX song "What is life, quality or quantity?" Okay, though, enough misery! There's a World Cup on the way and I've been reading my World Cup guide with a view to making the most accurate predictions possible (at least 80% of which you can guess will be wrong!). I'm actually finding some of the groups really hard to predict, with some teams only being seperated on goal difference. So many variables. Also, even though this is the first African World Cup, I get the feeling a lot of the African teams are going to come up short earlly on - but I hope I'm wrong. Live life to the full, people. Roll on the World Cup!!!! RM
