About Me

Was in investment management uk and middle and far east. broke my neck in saudi in 88, had three close famly members die and another accident in 92. Went out of biz as couldn't stand up anymore, went broke and marriage brooke up.. soooo sad huh, however, my son stayed with me and is now 19 and gorgeous, compassionate and an awesome songwriter/performer. how good is that. The no so good bit is I has a 5 month spell in hosp and 18 months in bed when my clavicle detached?? you try walking with a stick with a mobile collarbone!. anyway, am upnaround, on loads of drugs that make me seem normal'ish, still have carers and am more amused by life than ever. AND after a 4 year search I found a surgeon!!! wheyhey. nb, i also took 6 months sailing from uk to perth an back again. now that is great way to travel, i watched th world go by thru my porthole, and somehow being stuck in bed didn't seem too bad at all. it was real wow.
