A blogger's long vacation...

Well, it's been months since i made my last blog post. Some of you may be wondering if that car i bought in November got the best of me, but no the car has performed almost flawlessly. So you wonder where have i been...?

November brought the start of my 'hibernation', not that hibernation was in my plans. My plans were quiet the contrary, i had plans for work and travel, but a mystery illness took me off my feet. Literally! Was it not for modern day medicine i may have been left without my left foot, or perhaps even worse. Hopping around on my right foot in and out of the hospital, hooked up on intravenous antibiotics was not what i considered much fun, though i did try to make the experience as amusing as possible.

After the drawn out medical treatment, my foot seemed to be healed but something still didn't feel right,.. that is I did not feel right. Was it side effects from the antibiotics, or was there something else, something the doctors may have missed? Something just didn't add up. Kinda depressing when you know there's something wrong with you but you don't know what's wrong with you...

The past couple of months has brought me back between the walls of hospitals and clinics with medical specialists poking, proding at me from different angles. And more interesting symptoms appearing by the week, with the doctors trying to solve the riddle like a Hitchcock mystery. An if the the last investigator's theory is right, i may have to see the sharp end of a scalpel soon.. Let's hope and pray it doesn't lead to that.

Trying to keep up with blogging, or even writing e-mails in the midst of all this has been challenging. Residing between different walls with varied communication options, feeling much like one who's being led by forces out of my control. But i guess there's One who still has things under control...

So as i try to wake up from this unplanned 'hibernation', i'll try to catch up on life again. If only i could get on top of the hundreds of unread emails, i think i'd feel much better.
