Cartoon brain wearing a nightcap sleeping peacefully in bed under a blanket.

I think I belong in OZ, as I am sure I need a new brain, just like the scarecrow. I am probably beginning to walk like him too.

I can still think, but so many things get in the way, and not just ordinary things. Like housework or cooking lunch for my family. Indescribable things, too, that can somehow empty my mind in seconds.

All of this is probably due to the blessed aneurysm in my head. It has already claimed most of the sight in my left eye.

None of this was supposed to stop me from doing what I want to do, and in a small way, I am still trying to write when the fog lifts a bit. It’s all the other stuff, like marketing and organising our books that have become a bridge too far.

I am constantly searching for a way I can continue to do all that I did before.The fact that I am managing to do some things, encourages me to try more. I think I am getting stronger all the time, so struggling must be good for me…

Thanks for listening,

Jaye 💕

    1. I know, even when I hate it… but its all part of not giving up…

  2. You are a trooper, Jaye. A lesser person would have given up. I admire that in you.
