Six Weeks

October 29, 2017 by ejbones

It’s been two months since I last published a blog and let me tell you this, it has been quite the two months. After having this wretched disease for over five years, I thought little would surprise me. Well, I expected the whole looming death part to have a different trajectory to the routine I […]

The Cleaner

November 11, 2014 by ejbones

It may surprise many of you to learn that despite my current financial woes, I continue to employ the services of a cleaner. The cleaner comes fortnightly, and her services are paid for out of my disability living allowance. It is a necessary extravagance and it is an extravagance that I look forward to and […]

Priority Seats

October 24, 2014 by ejbones

Many things in this world irritate me. At the moment, not just at this moment in time, but in limited life, my biggest irritant is the public perception of my disability and the concessions they do not make for it. Right now*, I know that I am particularly angered by it because I opened the […]

♿️The Cancer Card♿️

September 21, 2014 by ejbones

With all this talk of the stress of benefits and the general downsides of having cancer, I thought it was an opportune time to boast about the upsides of cancer. The greatness of cancer if you will. ♿️♿️♿️ Cancer, unlike other disabilities, is hidden. These days, people rarely look me and think that I have […]

Ever Increasing Pain

July 1, 2014 by ejbones

The quick deterioration of my movement over the last month, has been an unwelcome surprise and it has been something of nightmares. Cancer I can handle. Being bed ridden and unable to climb into the shower? Not so much. Two months ago, I was worried that my movement had improved to such a point that […]

The Mobility Enhancer?

April 14, 2014 by ejbones

Today, apart from the work and the tiredness and normal feelings of insignificance, I am awash with excitement. Dare I say it, the excitement is palpable, that is, if I had not spent my day talking about risk management. I am excited because tomorrow marks my first physiotherapy appointment. A build up to anything causes […]

Transport for London

April 14, 2014 by ejbones

My hatred of public transport continues to escalate as my need to use it increases. That pre-rehearsed speech I have had in my head about the general public’s disregard and prejudice towards those with disability, becomes ever closer to an actual thing I am going to spit in a stranger’s face when they do one […]

Inside I’m Dancing

April 3, 2014 by ejbones

Once upon a twenties, there was a girl who loved nothing more than dancing and sweating whilst dancing and grinding and say then day that particular movement was dancing. Said girl’s only aerobic exercise for a long while, was the dancing. The pleasure she would get from the shuffle to a deep base would be […]

Planes, Trains and Automobiles

January 24, 2014 by ejbones

Sometime ago, I got the number 30 bus from Hackney Town Hall to the stop nearest to my flat, and as I stepped onto the curb on the road they call Ball, I remember how elated I felt, because finally, after months of Mamma Jones driving me places, taxis and the Patient Transport Service, I […]

Bureaucracy – An Update

December 9, 2013 by ejbones

Some time ago, I attempted to explain the form filling nightmare that is the British benefits system. To be fair, I expected to fill out forms, just not as many as I did, nor did I expect to have to prove that I was not a Big Fat Liar. Three months on, however, I am […]
