BUSY BUSY (then some) taking my wooden spoon, with me
Again, my apologies, for neglect of this BLOG.
During the last few weeks, I have been very busy ???
I have seen my NEUROLOGIST, for a general consult.
I STILL HAVE ATAXIA!!
We have agreed to suspend, my taking, of the HIGH dose Vitimin E, that is prescribed to me, so we can check on my requirements, prior to reintroducing, the vitamin E.
Went the Swansea office, of the WEA http://www.swales.wea.org.uk/index1.html
Attended a meeting at Red Roses, with Carmarthenshire Network Partnership http://www.thecarmarthenshirepartnership.org.uk/index.asp?locID=105&docID=-1
Went to Aberystwyth for a forum meeting with BBC Capture Wales http://www.bbc.co.uk/wales/audiovideo/sites/yourvideo/pages/alan_thomas_01.shtml

Trip to Access08 http://www.ctauk.org/index.aspx?id=1622 in Manchester, stayed at Premier Inn- Deansgate Locks, http://www.premierinn.com/pti/hotelInformation.do?hotelId=24128 The staff were wonderful, even fixed me up to have my photo taken with some international athletes, that were at staying at the hotel, while undertaking training for a major event.
While in Manchester, visited Disabled Living http://www.disabledliving.co.uk/disabledliving.shtml
Review at tripadvisor , later
Also met up with a friend and their family, (who will become a member of Ataxia South Wales).
We met at the Harvester McArthur Glen, Bridgend, we then spent the afternoon in the shopping Mall. http://www.mcarthurglen.com/cp_c10_bridgend.asp?id=Bridgend All the kids “got on really well”, and are talking via the internet, on a regular basis.

Last, Friday, my SPEECH Therapist, rang to see how I am getting on ? going to come to Coleshill, http://www.coleshillsocialcentre.org.uk/ to see me
Visits, to the dentist, to make sure that I DON’T have any problems, with my teeth, while on Holiday (Fuerteventura) in a few weeks time.
Dentist has prescribed “antibiotics” to help with any dental problems associated with this heavy cold, that has occurred !!
