The main purpose in starting this blog is to keep you informed of a new challenge in the Atthill household. In November 2011 Sue received confirmation that she has FSHD which is a form of muscular dystrophy. Again we are privileged to be surrounded by friends and family that want to know how things are and how Sue is coping; well this is for you so that we can update you more regularly.We’ve called this blog “Atthill Life” as from time to time we will give you updates on the rest of the family as well.

Home Visit

This morning I had a visit from Liz (a neuromuscular nurse from Colman Hospital who is my key-worker) and Joni my physio. The aim was to review my treatment/support so far and look at any other issues.

We talked through lots of things and I now have a few new things to try and Liz is looking into some other aids that may help me. One of their suggestions was that 'Pilates' would be beneficial for me so I am now looking into local classes.

I should be seeing Angela, my OT, soon with the bath aid she has got for me - am looking forward to a more comfy bathing experience!!

I do feel that I am being very well supported by a great team of people and I can call on them at any time if I need help. I will have another review with them in 3 months time.
