Hey all!

I joined back in May of this year and got off to a great start working my way through the training and getting my first website up and running.

I then fell ill and got struck down with horrible symptoms which was later diagnosed as Multiple Sceloris a week into my hospital admission.

My main sympom has been partial sight loss, double vision and dizzyness (as well as other MS symptoms such as numbness, pain and fatigue) so you can imagine how disabling this has been for me recently.

I had to stop using my laptop and phone purely due to my vision problems.

I am pleased, however, to report that my vision has improved enough to allow me to be using my laptop to be writing this update!

I still have double vision and I use adaptaive aids and an eye patch to help me get around and to function but it's a heck of a lot better than what it was.

This is why WA is SO SO important to me now and in the future. I need to be self sufficient with my income as currently I'm on sick pay from my day job with no hope of returning to work anytime soon with my symptoms the way they are. So money is tight right now.

I am keen and excited to pick up where I left off and continue my journey.

I know I have the unwavering support of this community and I thank you all for supporting me and cheering me on moving forward.
