Day Tripping

Time to reduce the MST and oramorph! Woke up early this morning as my wife had to get out for an early start. She was kind enough to leave me a fortisip protein drink (mmmmm) and a cup of tea. I took my normal array of drugs and nodded into a world of euphoria. My whole body felt like it was floating all comforted and warm in my bakewell tart bed I was laying in. Every muscle and sinue in my body was warmed by the overwhelming feeling of calm. No pain, no strain. Just perfect bliss. I LOVE MORPHINE!

The worrying thing was FOUR hours later when my wife returned I was still laying there! And even with Susan's attempts to get me out of bed by putting on the tumble dryer (my enemy since being ill) it was still such an effort to tear myself away from my bakewell tart.

After a conversation with my GP he thought perhaps I should reduce the MST (rather than doubling them like I thought) it appears I have been tripping lately.

After I had come round I had a good afternoon. I feel I have been in the real world talking to people on the phone keeping my sanity. Even our dog has been nice to me today. He hasn't liked me since I've been ill as I don't have the energy to interact with him.

Approaching my next dose of drugs boy I'm gonna miss that tablet!

Good to have you back on earth. Are you still tripping or did Spurs really beat the gooners 5-1.

You want to give up the drugs and stick to Boddingtons and Chunky Kitkats. Keep smiling.

Hi Vic - what a great idea to start a blog, and what a fab title 'from coffins to coughing'. Some media companies would have charged you a fortune to think of that!
I checked the Spurs result today and it didn't look good! - I think they need your morphine!
Love from Jane and David Parker

Hi Vic,
Bernard told me Bill told him you had a website,but they didn't know how to get there typical.
We found it and added it to my favourites. Just got to hope you read it. Hope you are making progress and the drugs are working. 'B' is off on holiday again, but I know he is thinking of you, well actually we all are. I am sure the dog is missing his long walks and we are missing your chats.
We will keep up with your site, Sheila & Neil.
