Living with sarcoidosis, the good, the bad, and lots of in between.
Its a question that seems somewhat poked alot, many say to let the fat cook the meat inside the sausage skin, yet many say poke the sausage allowing it to be cooked in the fat? Regardless of what the photo shows I do not prick my sausages, especially as these days they are getting much less fattier, so we are sold!?
The 1963 Beeching report suggested cutting back almost all the branch lines, about 5,000 miles of railway line and 2,363 stations, to keeping it short, he said all goods would eventually be transported by road, the short sightedness was that resulted in cluttered roads. Imagine how busy those branch lines would now be for commuters, although Sustrans are turning old lines into public ways, walking, cycling, horse riding, but they need to be maintained.
This sleeper probably has some real history behind it, its near the river Wharfe, possibly taken from the Ilkley to Skipton line after closure, the good news is that the now Embsay steam railway is hoping to extend from Bolton Abbey station to Addingham, but it would need to terminate before Addingham first school as that is now on the old route.
Tuesday and Wednesday at Remploy in Leeds went really well, it was good to meet some others who do want to get into work, but for various reasons they struggle to get employment.
On Wednesday we had to complete a group task within 20 minutes, we had a few minutes to view – not touch – a Lego building, the idea was to build one exactly the same, but only once the original had been taken away, in the five years that they had run this group exercise it had never been completed, and now you are left thinking – yes our group completed it within 18 and a half minutes, first time ever and it was spot on, I broke into a mega sweat!
Sometimes its very clear on wanting to see as far as possible, from the top deck of the bus going to Leeds…
Well well, the higher courts in London have been in touch, they have asked for my full file, it seems they are possibly going to take it a little further, and absolutely as Atos have certainly got it wrong this time, as mentioned before on 2nd June 2011 I was not allowed to work, I were still awaiting heart, brain, lung, lymph node etc. scans and test’s. I will prove that the Atos assessment is flawed against sarcoidosis sufferers, especially those who end up chronic.
Hold onto your hats as it might get stormy…
It must be mentioned, I weren’t going to do but my Sarcoidosis is confirmed as active, that’s about a dozen or so in the whole Bradford district that have it like me, its not leaving so we are going to have to reduce the Prednisolone and see what happens due to me being on dosages of between 20mg and 40mg per day, this can not carry on, more scans coming up, I already knew really but its still bit of a shock having it confirmed.
One annoying thing, Atos failed me yet I have something quite serious that is chronic, I have things to ask and sort now as my appeal from 2nd June 2011 is at the higher courts in London, the thoughts are, should I start another claim for Employment and Support Allowance? the ESA offices and or Atos might be reading this, who knows, if so ‘You have got it massively wrong’
Quite some hail dropping here!!!
Somewhat of a tramp type looking here…
And then we slowly move on to…
Now we getting there, is it all as it seems?
But decided on keeping the erm, hair, or what is left! but one day…
Three chins, woah, scary stuff!
And so which is the best way round that there van? some drivers really do park like what they must be, erm, idiots or stronger…
Hey, I have an appointment at Remploy in Leeds, its next week, this could be a brilliant chance to getting back into work, might only be a few hours per week. They do get quite a few vacancies through, the thing is too, employers seem to put trust in disabled people, that word ‘disabled’ jeez I never thought I would be using it, or actually have it.
And so the story continues, despite all the medics proving I was unfit for work on 2nd June 2011 Atos failed me, the benefits know im genuine and should not have been failed, my ESA appeal is now at the higher courts in London, Im quite sure what the answer will be but this time Atos have hugely got it wrong, I will up date later as I always wanted to get back into work, I just needed the support that was promised and then kicked out!
Just maybe the Leeds branch have more opportunities for employment?
Me and Dad in 1985, I believe it were either granddads 70th birthday or his 50th wedding anniversary, jeez where all that time goes, keep hold of those close to you; absorb all the heat, feelings, touches and listen…
Last week my Dad had a massive heart attack, he died three times but thankfully the NHS brought him back, three times, jeez that has been so scary, im so happy to be able to tell him I love him and that im sorry.
My big brother wrote this; A great man, A fantastic Dad, A loving Husband, Solid, honest and true, a credit to humanity……THATS MY DAD
