Hi Everyone!
I have had a bit of a break from writing recently to organise some other things in my life but I am feeling ready to hit the keyboard again and finish the rest of the Health Management Plan Series. Hooray! I will post the final part of the Medical Workbook section on Monday, it is all ready, I just thought I would ease you back into it and let you know what I have been up too. The rest of the series will follow in the next couple of weeks.
I have had a few big routine changes recently. I have decided to expand my knowledge of website design and development and have only last week started back at study to help me gain that knowledge. This is for me to be able to do more with this website than I am currently capable of as well as teaching me new and exciting things. I am enjoying the study but am still getting used to the change of pace, I am trying to get myself organised into a good routine so that I am able to undertake my course days without getting myself too exhausted. I am still working on that part!! Going from 7 days a week to myself to now only having 3 to get everything done has made for some interesting adjustments but I am really enjoying testing myself. You have to stretch the boundaries sometimes otherwise you get into a rut and are just happy to do a lot of “I wish I could” instead of “I can do……”!
I have also been doing a bit of work lately raising awareness and hopefully some funds for Cystic Fibrosis Queensland. I have always wanted to teach people more about CF, to raise awareness and answer some questions. I have made myself available to CFQ and they have happily decided to use my powers for good!! Haha! I will be attending a Charity Luncheon that is raising funds for CFQ next week, it was today featured in my local paper. Seeing yourself in full colour is a shock and reading your “story” is slightly cringe worthy but it is all for a good cause. If you want to raise awareness you have to put yourself out there and that is something that is new for me as I, and my family, have mainly kept our life with CF to ourselves. While I feel a bit weird about everyone in my local area now knowing I have CF if it means that more people will talk about it, learn about it and donate money to charities that help people living with CF than that is only a good thing. I have been helped a lot over the years by Cystic Fibrosis Queensland so it is the least I can do to offer myself to them, you have to give back when you can and right now I can. I will be doing some speaking for them in the next coming months and I am looking forward to helping people understand CF and the people that have it much better.
So that is all for tonight….. I will post Part 3 of the Medical Workbook on Monday. To go over the previous posts Part 1 can be read again here and Part 2 here.
If you are interested in contacting CFQ to learn more about their services or to send some love (or money!!) their way please follow this link….. http://www.cysticfibrosis.org.au/qld/. To find a local CF Association in Australia please go to…… http://www.cysticfibrosis.org.au/cfaustralia/.
Thanks for all the support you, as readers, give me and this site. I appreciate your understanding when I have breaks from writing, they do come with the territory, I am not always in the frame of mind to write and I am thankful that you all understand that.
Take care, Lily
