The year 2013
wasn’t great for me, unlike the beginning of the year that wake up to cheerful
cake-cutting and get-together with cousins and following trip to Javadu Hills…
the house shifting, father’s bike accident and my femur fracture are greater
setback of the previous year. I never thought that we will shift to an
individual house, but things happened all of sudden and we shifted house in
about a week of time going through it. The spacious rooms and corridor, garden
space and silent environment, large windows and natural light attracted me to
this home but we only find the hidden dragons almost settled! Lol
We experienced
extreme heat during the summer season, which we chosen for shifting house has
been a great mistake and also deciding the house just with the look of it is
another error we had done this year. In the monsoon and winter, ever like
before we exposed to mosquitoes bite… day or night they are always around us,
even in extreme hot condition they survives quite. The initial strike of the
latter year happened when dad skid off the bike and got severe wound in ankle
along with hair crack, has dropped away the cheer of 2013. With no help from
any other, mom had to take care of all things single handedly and cooking isn’t
a tough job for her but taking care of me as a single woman has no words to
describe.
Just like that
that where there is an end, there is a beginning… when thinking that everything
was back to normal - dad almost recovered - my fracture on femur drawback to
extreme level. Still unable to believe that I got fracture, because I haven’t
actually fall dawn but while shifting from a stool to wheelchair, the chair
moved and I was seated on the floor in my knee, bending fully. Normally my knee
won’t bend after certain level but that day my entire body weight has bear on
the bended knee, which causes fracture above the knee on the femur bone. Doctor
says it’s not a bone that breaks easily, but the reality was, my bones are so
weak and being a muscular dystrophy patent it seems like a normal thing. Only
now we have come to know about it… so therefore we need more attention towards
it also.
I have planned
to do certain things in 2013, but dad’s injury and my fracture had pushed away…
but the things aren’t that impossible to achieve and I hope they could wait for
their time to come. The most favorite thing for me was traveling. I could think
they are the best part of my life, because traveling is not that easy for a
wheelchair rider and however it was difficult I love to do so. And not to
forget, nothing is possible without my parents, and it’s their strength and
affection that make my dreams come true. Vacations are the happier time for
anyone of us, and in latter year too I had a wonderful one and also exploring
new places were another delight.
For the last
six months I haven’t travelled out of the city and in that, the last three
months were like hell shut inside the home. Watching television and music where
the only entertainment and I couldn’t sit back longer to read something and
touched extreme level on boring while lying and staring at TV. It was never like
before I was forced to take bed rests, except night times I generally won’t lie
for any reason unless fall ill. Words can’t describe how terrible I felt and
still feeling the pain on the progress of knee bending, which still holds 20%
stiffness that resist me keeping my feet on the wheelchair’s footrest quite.
What really
worry me now was, could I able to regain my standing ability which helped me
then for shifting my seat from one another. Actually I used to stand on my left
leg and right one just support for balance, though there won’t be much
difficult since the fracture happened only on the right one, but I still worry
about. I still haven’t tried climbing into a car; I’m waiting for my last
review on fracture to confirm quite recovery. In-between we are looking for
another house shifting this month, without much hurry and with the latter
experience we make sure that we don’t repeat the mistakes choosing the house.
This is also
the longest break I have taken in blogging, unless I am ill I could not avoid
blogging, because it is the only source of sharing which makes me feel quite.
Even I find Facebook and Flickr as other sharing option, blogging could never
replace, at least at this moment… I missed this place a lot. I am back, but not
quite… but I decided to make a slow entry and don’t mistake me, if I haven’t
check yours. I will slowly catch up with everyone. Btw. Thank you all so much
for the well wish and I also hope it was a wonderful beginning for you all this
year. Take care and have a great year ahead.
