Foot steps: The Journey

We never look at how far we've come,
We just look at how long we have left,
My journey is far from done,
Had to lift friends when they can't get up,
Been held up on my dark days.

Started my recovery journey by my self,
Now I have lots of help,
A whole team of people supporting me,
I survived by my strength of will,
It was no sort of skill,
The Sepsis wouldn't let me be,
ARDS tried to be the end of me.

But now I look beside me,
What do I see?
Friends and Family,
All who have, love for me!

My heart is full,
With all the love I am shown,
Friendships have grown,
We're all fighting for a cause,
To make ICU life and survivorship better.

Recovery isn't easy but it starts with a single step,
Sometimes it is easy, 
Sometimes it takes everything you've got,
But with the RehabLegend family behind you, it's no stress,
We are here to help you be your best,
But remember no matter how hard it gets,
We are all here for you,
To help support in this test,
We have walked this path and survived,
So can you, we will gladly help you if you need us too.

I have had a lot of bumps in my path through life but I am still standing (for 2 minutes at a time mind you) still smiling (unless I cracked a tooth) and trying to live my life as fully as I can. There are lots of inspirational people in this world and lots of people who want to help people. I have met tonnes of them, the greatness and kindness of people are immense. To the 500 plus people who follow me on twitter (I have no idea why you do) but you all mean a lot to me. To my friends whom I seem to have more than I could ever imagine having before as the guy who was sick a lot and in the ital more than the average person.

Thank you all for being my friend and listening to me when I have been struggling with life, anxiety, my health in general and a whole host of other things.

But most of all Thank you, everyone, that reads this it means the world to me and I hope that it makes you smile or feel inspired or anything else really. Thank you, you mean the world to me.
