CRPS is a nerve condition -my nerves are damaged <your head will be too if you keep rolling your eyes>

I was sledging in the second week of January 2010 and hit a tree...I broke my right ankle (a spiral fracture) I was put in a cast that did not allow for the swelling of the leg and caused my toes to turn black...

In a nutshell, I ended up in plaster for SIX MONTHS and now I walk with a boot and a rollator. 

Realising 6 years is nearly upon me is galling. I've waited on hydrotherapy and physio from the NHS but I seem to slip through every net. The accident happened when I was 25...I'm now 31 and my mental health has taken a massive knock. I'm desperate to walk again without a boot and aids. Nobody knows what CRPS is when I have to sit after less than 10minutes of being up a great many people will roll their eyes and I've even had several people comment on how lazy I am and how I am not helping myself...

My hied is busting!

My soul is sad

IF YOU CAN READ THIS...

•you've had the benefit of education (even if you didn't make the best of what you had at the time you had there);

•you have access to the Internet;

•you have some device on which to access this (or access to a device);

•you are LIKELY to have access to money, food, healthcare -even if you wish it were more, better or more quickly;

•you're POSSIBLY able to express your opinion (even if it's under a pseudonym online or only with peers);

•you can see (or possibly only hear) this...(some people never have had these gifts we take for granted too easily);

•you are breathing (even if it is with equipment to help) -we too easily forget some have never made it to their FIRST breath, some parents have never got to hold their baby/babies...some fathers have never known of their children...others have never cared and left scarred and broken children...some children may have been left by both;

...YOU ARE LUCKY!

~^* Luckier than more than 3/4 of this world AT LEAST...

(I do not like to use sweeping statements or percentages that I haven't researched... I KNOW the percentage is, however, higher than the one I have have used) *^~

My heart breaks for this world and the sadness in it.
