Last night I got run over by three people on a motorbike. It really hurt. The collision threw me up in the air and I landed on my ribs (which are now bashed in and absolutely killing me) then the back wheel ran straight over my ankle. Cheers for that.

Amazingly, I didn't hurt my back (not that there's any change with it) and amazingly I'm still walking and talking. Sort of.

(Thanks to DJ Joe and Len for peeling me off the tarmac and giving me drugs and a little miniature Buddha to keep for the future..)

seriously?
When I read this, I was like 'is this out of some sitcom or something?'
then i reread it and realised you can't possibly be joking. wow.
well let's look at it this way, if you've got a bad back previously, and now you've got your ribs bashed in, then you're pretty much learned how to be invincible to all sorts of pain. :)
get well soon.

Just Remember
when you feel a bit down on your luck, just remember that the world is all about balance. So whatever 'bad' luck you might have, there's good luck right around the corner :)

Ever think you might be a cat from another life?
Sending much needed long distance Reiki your way.
I took my course when I lived in Hawaii and the
energy that comes is what's needed.
Thinking of you also,
