I wish I didn’t have MS.
I wish I never had MS.
I wish my MS had stayed at the stage it was 10 years ago.
I wish there was a cure for MS.
I wish I could have just one day off from having MS.
I wish we still lived in Cyprus.
I wish we hadn’t had to move back to the UK, Hales was so happy living in Cyprus and I feel it was mostly my fault we had to move!
I wish I still had my own pool cleaning business in Cyprus. (Best job I have had in my life!)
I wish I could still handle working in the heat cleaning pools every day in Cyprus. (40c regularly in summer)
I wish I could still get the feeling of pride when I had cleanèd a pool and it was spotless!
I wish I could still scuba dive.
I wish I could spend hours taking photos while scuba diving.
I wish we still lived in the bungalow in Protaras, with a nice swimming pool in the garden!
I wish I still helped to look after the colony of stray cats near the bungalow.
I wish I still helped with other stray cats in Cyprus.
I wish I had the money to send to the people still over there helping cats.
I wish I could still work full time and be a bread winner again!
I wish I didn’t have to watch Hales work so hard and have to do so much for me now!
But it is what it is and it’s no good looking backwards, I keep going the best I can and will continue fighting. I can’t change the past and there isn’t a magic fairy or genie to grant wishes! I make the most of what I’ve got and I know I am incredibly lucky to have such a fantastic wife at my side. I have a really good network of friends and family behind me all the way as well, so I keep as positive as possible for everybody.
That was a good rant, think I’ll publish this on my blog!
