Stolen Food 19-8-2024

2 x Almond Crissaints. Thankyou Tesco, Wilth Out Your Free Food, I Would Have Starved To Death Thankyou Town, For Leaving For Me.

Pumpkin-Latte Caramel-Latte-Cappuccino All £0.89 Each, Happy Haloween.

我叫 Raymond Duggan，直到最近我一直在英格兰伊明厄姆出售《大问题》杂志。5 月 18 日，我的生活几乎在一夜之间发生了改变。那天，我不得不停止工作——出于安全考虑，也因为我几乎完全失明了。失去视力的震惊就在几天前的 5 月 12 日，我去 Specsavers 做了一次原本以为很简单的白内障转诊检查。但到了 5 月 18 日，我几乎 99.9% 失明。我的左眼完全被白内障覆盖。右眼情况也不容乐观——就像透过浓雾看东西一样。突然间，最简单的事情都变得不可能了。认人、过马路、看报纸——一瞬间全部消失。第一次手术：希望的曙光 6 月 26 日，我接受了第一次白内障手术。第二天，医院打电话来询问我的状况。令他们也令我自己惊讶的是，我告诉他们，我已经能在 60 米外看清车牌号。在经历数周的失明后，这简直像奇迹一般。第二次手术：并发症出现 8 月 9 日，我接受了第二次白内障手术。这次手术大约持续 40 分钟，但并不顺利。手术过程中，我出现了超声乳化灼伤——因为超声波去除白内障时产生的热量导致角膜受损。我还出现了角膜皱褶，这是角膜肿胀形成的细小皱纹。这些并发症减缓了我的恢复速度，让我比预期更长时间经历模糊、扭曲的视力。康复情况我定期复查以追踪康复进展： 8 月 13 日：左眼视力 6/38，右眼 6/12 8 月 29 日：有一些改善——左眼 6/18，右眼 6/7.5 9 月 26 日：再次复查，医生考虑移除可能存在的缝线我的新人工晶体（IOL）度数为左眼 22.5D，右眼 21.5D。与并发症共处这段旅程并不轻松。第一次手术让我重拾希望——世界几乎瞬间重现清晰。但第二次手术带来了挫折，考验了我的耐心。与超声乳化灼伤和角膜皱褶共处意味着每一天都不同：有些天视力更清晰，有些天则更令人沮丧。自五月以来，我一直无法工作，也很想念《大问题》杂志的常客。但我下定决心，只要安全，我一定会重返岗位。我的收获白内障手术常被称为常规手术——但对于我们中的一些人来说，并非如此简单。康复过程充满不确定性，改善是循序渐进的，而非一蹴而就。耐心和积极心态与滴眼液和复查同样重要。展望未来我分享我的经历，是因为我知道有其他人正面临同样的手术、同样的恐惧，甚至可能经历相同的并发症。如果我的故事能让哪怕一个人感到不...

🫂 December 20, 2025: Holiday Isolation—How to Find Warmth When You Can’t Go Out

It’s the weekend, and for many, this is the start of holiday travels, parties, and family gatherings. But for those of us who are housebound, especially with a severe condition like LVSD 20% and NYHA Stage IV heart failure, the surge of activity outside can feel like a painful reminder of isolation. The hardest part about this time of year isn’t the physical struggle—it’s the profound emotional challenge of watching life happen without you. Redefining the Holiday Gathering As a traveler, I loved the bustle of holidays in different countries. Now, my travel is confined to the journey from my chair to the kitchen (with the Community Team’s help), and my gatherings are necessarily scaled back. So, how do we find warmth and connection when we can’t cross the threshold? We focus on "Low-Energy, High-Value" social contact. The Virtual Visit is the Real Visit: Drop the expectation that a phone call or video chat is a "lesser" form of connection. For us, it is the most va...

⚔️ January 1, 2026: The Year I Didn't Expect to See—We Fight. We Live.

Happy New Year. Just a few months ago, amidst the 999 calls and the terrifying diagnoses of $\text{LVSD}$ (EF 20%) and $\text{NYHA}$ Stage IV, I couldn't guarantee I would see this day. For anyone facing a life-limiting illness, crossing the threshold into a new year is not a given—it is a fierce, hard-won victory. This is the year I didn't expect to see, and because of that, I greet it not with complacency, but with doubled resolve: We fight. We live. Keep fighting. Keep living. The War Zone is My Living Room My life is now a fight not for a plane ticket, but for stability. The war zone isn't a foreign conflict; it's right here in my living room, centered on my chest. The Fight for Breath: Every moment is a struggle against the breathlessness inherent in Stage IV heart failure. The fight is won not by rushing, but by the discipline of stillness and the immediate, effective use of my rescue medication. The Fight for Purity: The battle against fluid retention require...

🗓️ December 17, 2025: The View From My Window—And The Kindness That Crosses Thresholds

Yesterday, I spoke honestly about the brutal reality of my condition—how simple tasks, like lifting a cup of coffee, have become taxing military missions, and how I’ve officially become housebound, relying on the amazing support of the Community Care Team. The hardest part about having LVSD 20% and NYHA Stage IV is the forced pause. As a lifelong traveler, my instincts scream Go , but my heart insists Stop . The Window: My New Passport Since last Friday, my physical world has shrunk to the perimeter of my home. My window has become my new passport, offering a daily glimpse of the world I can no longer freely access. And yet, looking out, I realized something important: Travel isn't just about movement; it's about observation and connection. When I was traveling the globe, I sought out the big, dramatic scenes—the sweeping vistas, the bustling markets. Now, my focus is hyper-local, and in that forced stillness, the small details are screaming the loudest. The precise way the lig...

Small Wins, Big Momentum: Why Tiny Steps Matter

We often underestimate the power of small actions. A short walk, a thoughtful message, finishing one task — they seem insignificant in the moment. But momentum doesn’t come from grand gestures alone. It grows quietly, step by step, choice by choice. Every tiny win nudges your confidence, your clarity, and your energy forward. Think of a snowball rolling down a hill. At first, it’s small, almost invisible. But with each rotation, it gains size, speed, and power. Your small, intentional actions work the same way. Today, pick one tiny win. Make your bed, send that message, take a mindful breath before reacting. Notice how it feels. That small step may be the spark that carries you toward bigger changes. Progress isn’t always loud. Often, it’s quiet, subtle, and cumulative — but it is unstoppable when nurtured consistently.

The Early Morning Light That Changed My Perspective

This morning, I woke earlier than usual and noticed the soft, golden light spilling across my room. It was brief, almost fleeting, but enough to catch my attention. I usually rush through mornings, barely noticing the way the world shifts with the dawn. But today, I paused, breathed, and watched the light slowly move across the walls. It reminded me that even brief moments can carry a quiet magic if we’re present to see them. Life often rushes past, full of deadlines, tasks, and noise. But slowing down, even for a few minutes, gives space for awareness, gratitude, and clarity. Today, notice the light — literal or metaphorical — that appears in your life. Pause, reflect, and let it illuminate your day.
