How wonderful that your family is sharing this new (renewed) time and getting to explore the world with you. My own loved ones continue to help me heal. I, too, write as one way to heal, wobbles and all. I am doing well yet still take heart when I hear and read how others thrive. Maybe I'll see some of those Wonders of the World, but right now I'm enjoying bus travels here in Kansas City. What are your writing now?

Anne Reavill As you say, writing can be one good way to heal. If ever I feel a bit down I have to remind myself how lucky I am to still be here.

I am not doing a lot of writing at the moment as I am spending more time on my other passion which is painting. However I have two or three books on the go and tend to switch between them as the mood takes me. One is almost complete. This is a sort of follow on from my other book on nursing and midwifery, but in a fictional setting this time It includes some of the many incidents and that I did not have space to cover there. I hope to complete it by the end of this year.(less)

Thank you for your sharing your story in _Explosions In My Brain_. Like you, I am a brain aneurysm / SAH survivor. Reading your journey was touching, for I could relate to so many of your experiences. I wonder, however, about the "more" of your recovery. How is your husband doing? Did you get to visit your sister in Australia, or did she come to you? How do you continue today?

I am lucky to have recovered so well, although it certainly took time. I still have partially numb and tingling feeling in my feet, but am so used to it I hardly notice it any more. I often used to feel dizzy if I turned to quickly, but seemed to recover from that after a couple of years.
Since then I have done a lot of travelling with my husband, who is fine. We have visited my sister in Australia and also other relatives in Canada. Last year we visited Peru, which was fantastic, and we both coped well with the high altitude there. So life is good.
I hope you have recovered, or are recovering, well from your aneurysm/SAH. It is always good to hear from other survivors.
