Brightwell’s left peg

Welcome back Daniel.I think I last posted in 2009, when I was able-boddied. Excluding a recent post about Colin Bell.
Now I am severely disabled with a brain injury, and have been disabled since 2009.
They removed about 1/2 of my cerebellum. That is part of my brain. Now I have no balance, & cannot walk. I use a walker or wheelchair to get around. I am totally deaf in my right ear. I have slanted double vision - because of the slant it cannot be rectified by lenses. I cannot speak clearly. What I think in my head does not come out of my mouth. If I talked to you, you would not understand me. I use email to communicate. my email address is danielstone56@gmail.com.
I was in hospital for 14 months. I had breathing & feeding tubes, though both have now been removed. I cannot drive, because of my double vision.
I have had to sell my large 5 bedroom, 3 storey house on a big lot in central Toronto, Canada. I have moved to Alexandria, near Ottawa. (Toronto was very expensive).
I think my username was Toronto. I think that some of my counterparts were Mick & Fleetwood. If you know anything, please email me.
A lot has happened at City since I last posted. Hart, Zabelletta, Viny, Karlo, Kolorov, Yaya, Barry, DeJong, David Silva, Ballotelli, Tevez, Djeko, Navas, the 2 Shmeikles, Robhino, Anelka, SWP, Elano, Giovanni, Mancini, Pellegrino, Sven, Hughes, Keegan, Arteta, Shinatra, & others, have left. We have started winning. We beat the Rags at the Swamp 6-1. We have started to play beautiful football. Edison, Walker, Mendy, Cancello, Dias, Stones, Laporte, Aki, Ferdandino, Rodri, Gundolan, De Bryne, Foden, Bernado Silva, Mahrez, Kun, Jesus, Torres, Sterling, Pep, Sheik Monsour, & others, have come. Our competition is now Liverpool, Spurs & Leicester instead of the Rags & Arsenal.
Whilst I can’t begin to imagine what you’ve been through and are going through, it’s great that City are going to provide some welcome relief for you.
Also, whilst it might be hard to look on the bright side, having part of your brain removed is generally a prerequisite for supporting the rags, so the fact you’re still a City supporter is great...and the fact you still call the rags ‘the rags’ is even better.
Stay clear of the match day thread. You’ll think you’re supporting a relegation threatened side needing an extensive clear out.
