As I write, someone I love is lying in a coma with severe brain and spine injuries, following a car accident last Sunday. I am not planning to write about this in detail as the purpose of my blog is not to upset people or make them feel sad. I only mention it here because some people already know about the accident or have read about it in the newspaper, and might wonder how I can continue to write about the superficial details of my life in the circumstances.
The answer is that it allows my mind, however briefly, to escape from the painful image of a small room in a neuro-chirugie unit where by a delicate arrangement of tubes and machines, one poor soul is clinging to life.
Hi just wanted to say my thoughts are with you at this awful time and hoping that things improve for you and your loved one. xx
