The recovery was really fast at first. Every day I was going a little further and slowly coming off my pain killers. Three weeks after my operation I played the last ever Kings of Macumba gig on the main stage at the Wickerman festival. I didn't think i'd make it, I'm so glad I did! We couldn't hang about at the festival for long though because I couldn't walk far and was still in quite a bit of pain.
I'm the odd one out cause I got there too late to put my top on and crept up behind the band just in time to start playing..
The recovery has slowed right down recently though, the pain is the same every day. Although I feel capable of walking much further and for longer the pain in my back and ribs gets in the way which is quite frustrating. Although, I'd be in this pain for the rest of my life, gladly, if it meant I got to live to an old age! Still though, I can't help but have a wee moan and feel quite sad about the position we're all in. Most of the time we're happy and having a laugh together!
