hello friends! quiet quick one to say i am okay, my surgery has healed more or less completely (tight tendons still). last month was a rollercoaster of joy through to raw grief with very little lead-up, and I'm still working on coming back to myself. I hope you're all well ❤️
Took a trip across town to see When Held this morning! I'm still uncovering new angles and ways that it's affecting me while trading thoughts with friends who also attended. Thank you for creating and sharing this piece ❤️ @TobiasMenzies
so far ive had an uncountable amount of moments where the staff don't understand why i'm here for a third time and the previous logs have been messy. but they've found the note about my pronouns so i'm not a he/him any more at least
attempt here meaning i've tried to get this done 3 times and been told the day of each time so far that it can't be done because other people need it more than i do. which is fair, but also means i am just stuck in the worst wait mode imaginable
@yuristlaurent i mean ive tried to get this surgery 3 times now and the last 2 times i've been told when i arrive that it can't be done today and to come back in a few days! not ideal!
We are devastated to hear of the death of our much loved friend, colleague, volunteer, and young person, Shay. As a youth work community, we are working on a space to come together today and grieve and celebrate Shay.
something i love a lot is being told to eat at 6am and then not eat in case of a surgery that im going to be confirmed or deferred for at 9am. and then not getting that call so im hungry, tired, and stuck in the worst wait mode ever. i really love all these things today
@yuristlaurent im currently sat with my fingers held open by small objects so my fan can dry out the skin between them. was not prepared for how that would get gross so fast!
to make clear, the fact that i'm temporarily unable to do a lot of stuff i could do before (and some stuff i may never be able to do again) is totally not my shame point! that comes from admitting i got too cocky less than 24hrs after returning to the island and messed up
deeply embarrassing to have to reveal in the morning meeting that i broke my wrist last week and need surgery on it. but i needed to come clean to allow for my slow replies
