Snooze with Sam

Hello everyone ❤️
Thank you as always for being so patient with a next update. I only have the use of one hand just now, so I apologise for being fairly brief.

This will never change, but I want to wholeheartedly thank you all for continuing to listen and support as you are. You blow my tiny little mind every day. So do my closer support network of Christine, my parents, my sister, my friends and everyone else who has been by my side through what has become through hardest thing I've ever had to face, and a lot tougher than I'd care to admit.

After having tasted sweet, sweet freedom, I am back bed bound in High Dependency after an initial operation to apply a skin flap graft from my wrist to my right ankle. Unfortunately, there had been no healing in the right foot over the last 2 months, so we started again with this side. The first operation eventually failed about 36 hours later, meaning back into theatre to try again. It has now been 48 hours since and we're now hopeful this 2nd attempt will stick. I am hoping it'll only be another few days being stuck in this bed. The pain is still a very real thing. I am humbled by it's everlasting presence.
3 limbs put of action now! Who's keeping count? 😜

It's been 2 months now, and there's no sign of the exit yet. So the saying goes; two steps forward, one step back.
I don't mind admitting this last week has beaten the life out of me on a few occasions. I am not superman. I am not invincible. I am fragile, as much as I try to he as strong and resilient as it is possible to be. But it's quite clear to me that my experiences of life going forward will absolutely revolve around my people. ❤️ My family. My community. You are all part of that.

Thank you for being patient with me. Stories will go out when I can physically make them. Believe me, I am trying my absolute hardest to get out of this, all the while trying to learn as much as possible on the way.

Love to you all, from an uncomfortable bed somewhere in Glasgow, baking his leg at a steady 38⁰C. 😘 S x
