It's been a while since I blogged here but just time for a quick one!
Did anyone watch The Apprentice on Wednesday? It was the one when they interviewed the final five and before the main show, they did an extra hour showing the friends and family and life stories of the contestants.
Lorraine, the oldest contestant (still younger than me!) talked about having scoliosis and having a spinal fusion as a teenager. I really liked Lorraine. She was a bit different to the other business types in pinstripe suits, wasn't she? I'm still hoping she gets her own Mystic Meg show.
I'm hoping to pick up the blogging again this summer when other work has calmed down a bit. Continued thanks to those who read and those who have emailed me.

Shanta, I wish you were still writing this blog! I just found it today when searching for information on pregnancy and scoliosis. I have two curves as well, am 37, and worried that due to my back pain, pregnancy is not in the cards. I started the morning looking at surrogacy websites - but who has the money for this? And can I actually carry a baby to term? My daily meds include celebrex, tramadol, and zantac to ease the stomach discomfort. With all of that I still have pain and don't recall when I last slept soundly through the night. Yet here I am, wondering if I can host a baby long enough to develop its lungs enough to live successfully. Perhaps I'll just stick with dogs and not risk it.
Lily, please don't give up on the idea of motherhood. I'm not a dr so cannot give you medical advice but if you want to email me personally (through the profile page), I'd be happy to chat to you or arrange a phone call if my experience may be of any help.Also if you read the article by Sinead Murphy at http://www.dppi.org.uk/journal/64/experience2.php you might want to get in touch with her at SSAI. Good luck and thanks for reading.
