@matigo As a kid she was abused by her callous female guardian so had a slightly different perspective to start with.

Doctors talk about people going ‘into shock’. I wonder what definition of shock is.
@hazardwarning I've been told to have a walk twice a day in the short term. In the medium to long term I'll have to do some strengthening exercises probably.
@matigo I see garden/house work as lost time even though the end result can sometimes be satisfying.
According to the man I spoke to from the surgery my recent achilles tendon pain might not be an injury as such. It might just be the tendon complaining because I went from being acompletelylazytwat to just a bitofalazysod. In other words, I started doing a lot more garden/house work and was on my legs a lot more than usual. He says I just need to condition it. That's good because in the first three days of it, it felt like someone was cutting me with a blade.
The big arms dump explosion in the Ukraine yesterday registered 3.4 on the Richter Scale. Some depleted uranium (shell tips) were allegedly stored there amongst other things.
'Loneliness is a massive form of stress'. Ah, well that would explain why lonely people die younger than others then, because stress is known to be very bad for a person's health. I think a bit of stress now and then can be useful, but a lot can kill.
