Yeah- I know- last month I had a wicked viral inner ear problem. I felt like my head was disconnected from my body ...talk about weaving and falling...whooo!
I said if I ever have to live like that 24 - 7 - shoot me now. I couldn't stand it. It may sound flippant- but seriously - I don't think I could cope with that.
But - back to my ear.
It's in the cartiledge on the top of my ear- it's the same as a boxer's cauliflower ear- this is how they start- with a blow to the ear. Now, whether it was caused by my helmet- or my head scraping the ground I don't know. but it was enough that somehow bacteria entered my ear- and set up shop.
The lymph node behind the affected ear is massive and hard.
I have to apply an antibiotic prescription cream to get rid of it.
But I mean- what an ignoble ending!
All that- and I get an infection on my EAR?!
I am grateful though- I got off very easily- no broken bones, no lost teeth, no broken nose, a technicolour thigh that is healing quickly- and a face that's 99 per cent healed up. In 6 days.
Yep- I'm lucky.

and you are about to step off into the darkness
faith is knowing one of two things will happen-
there will be something solid to stand on-
or you will be taught to fly...
