Where in the world have I been? Mainly in the hospital with my mum who became awfully ill all of a sudden and spent an entire month as an inpatient, to an outpatient to an inpatient again. She is now home, getting well but not quite out of the woods yet.
Life took on a somewhat surrealistic form, in which we all walked on surfaces that seemed to rise up at us head on then drop suddenly when it appeared flat. It's safe to say that we took on a "don't assume anything" mentality and took each bump, climb and plummet one at a time.
Writing hasn't been central as one can imagine, but always on my mind, usually in a moment before I fell asleep and upon rising, but pushed back once more. But now, I have those electric tingles in my fingers which are itching for pen and paper, and I've started to slowly ignite those muscles; the ones in the brain, the heart and fingers.
I've been lucky to have incredible support network in the last few months, you all know who you are, once more. I thank you, as does my mother.
Here are a few pics from the last two months, I'll let them tell you a little story.
