Hey, hello everyone.
First of all, thank you so much to those people who have cared and sent me messages on Discord about this. All the unconditional support is really appreciated and really encourages me a lot, especially in these days that, to be honest, have not been very good for me.
And, about my uncle: He is doing much better.
You may have noticed that I have been posting non-stop and I have been making some comments here and there, this because I still need to keep making a lot more money to be covered for anything that is needed and also because I don't want to lose the rhythm and the activity here.
I still have quite a bit of money in my wallet and this is because I have been using it very consciously and always trying to save it to have there to cover any possible expenses that may arise in my household and also for my uncle, but there are probably a lot more expenses coming and already my savings are gone, so I will probably start using from all the money I have collected so far.
Since a couple of weeks ago my uncle started going to an internist (I think he is a kind of medical specialist) to keep a constant check of his health, he is the one who gives us indications about what he can eat, what he should do and all that.
It is who makes this type of thing:
Here he tell us what medications he will need and all that. My uncle was even prescribed meds for life as he will be hypertensive for the rest of his life. There are also some temporary medications he will have to take as he is not fully recovered yet, I think the most expensive thing so far is the diet he has to follow. He can't eat a lots of things, as far as I know, he can't eat sausages, foods with a lot of salt or very sugary foods and that sort of thing. I'm honestly not sure exactly what he can eat, the one who is more attentive to that is my aunt t-t.
Anyway, yesterday I asked my aunt to show me the latest paperwork she's been given from the clinics she's been to, here they are:
All these documents are different prescriptions about what he needs, whether it is about his diet, the medications he needs, or more tests that the specialist needs to be able to determine other things. He also has to attend therapy to continue improving his mobility in his body, which I am quite happy about because the improvement is noticeable. He attends therapy on Mondays and Thursdays and it is very noticeable the difference compared to how he was in the beginning, I have noticed how he can contract his hand a little bit and he can also open it a little more and he can also move a couple of fingers slightly. This makes me very happy because before it was impossible for him to make a single movement in his arm or hand, so this progress gives me a lot more hope that he will be able to recover soon, but I guess this takes more time and it is a longer process than I think it really is.
But, it hasn't all been great, at least not for me.
The people I trust the most have already been aware of this, but I didn't want to do a post on Hive about it since it's completely irrelevant stuff, but now that I'm doing this personal post, it's okay to say so.
On Friday 03/09/2021 I was robbed by 3 people in a vehicle and 1 of them armed. This is the first experience I've had and I must admit it was completely crazy for me, not only was it a financial blow because they stole my previous phone, but also emotional. I can't go out on the street without worrying about any car passing by or people's stares, it's a very strange anxious feeling that I want to completely avoid and it's amazing how fast it all happened. In just a matter of seconds they threatened me with a gun and took my phone, it's a long story that I honestly don't want to share explicitly, but without a doubt this has been one of the most traumatic moments in my life.
I have already put complaints to the police here (spefically CICPC) and I also already have a new phone since yesterday, my mother sold me her phone, a Redmi 9t identical to the one I used to have. I really liked this model because it's pretty cheap and also fulfills everything I need for now, I wanted to go for something more expensive and with a better camera, but honestly I don't have enough money for that. Since I didn't have a phone I couldn't log in to Hive because in my house there is no internet since 2 weeks and I couldn't log in even with mobile data, but just now I'm using the mobile data of my new phone and that's how I'm writing this post.
I lost all my previous information, including a lot of photos that I never posted. I also lost all the original files of the photos I've uploaded here, so it kind of sucks. But I'm still trying to keep my head up and keep on my thing, I've been going to my neighbor's house to steal internet so I can play Axie and also not stop posting posts. I didn't want to mention this before as it was going to sound too unrealistic to post about it and I also wanted to fix things on my own. For now I managed to sort out a bit of all the chaos in my life and I'm trying to get everything back to normal.
I really apologize to all the people who have commented and I haven't responded back, I'm not investing any time in responding to comments, I just read them and let them go. I'm really sorry for that.
I hope I can get back to having the same activity at Hive as I used to as I really miss this place. My real life has been very complicated at the moment and that's why I've decided to distance myself a bit, but I keep thinking about coming back here to continue doing what I've been doing since I came back to Hive.
I'm just making this post to explain a little bit why my attitude lately and also to give a little update on how my uncle is currently doing. Again, thank you so much for all the concern and for taking the time to comment or write me directly on Discord, I greatly appreciate that. (Which by the way, I've had more activity on Discord lately as I feel very comfortable talking to people there and I tend to get quite distracted from all the chaos).
I think for now this is all I can say. Really, thank you very much for everything and also for all the support you have given me. Hive has really become more than just a blogging platform for me, all the people I have met here have been amazing and I am more than grateful for everything they have done for me.
Take care of yourselves and take care of yours too. Life can get very complicated in the blink of an eye, so don't ever stop taking care of yourselves.
I send you a hug, thank you very much for reading all this.
Man, the world hasn't been good to you lately. It's nice to hear your uncle is getting better. I've never experienced a robbery or anything close to it so I can only imagine what something like that is like. I can see it messing up the trust you have in strangers and you walk around looking over your shoulders all the time. I hope we get to see you back in your usual amount of activity. Your activity on chain is missed for sure.
Definitely not, maybe I'm paying bad karma.
It completely sucks to have so much insecurity when going out on the street, I am a person who always goes out to eat and since I don't have a car I have to go out with my group of friends, but just that day I was alone and that made me look like an easy prey, at least I'm ok.
With the phone I hope to be able to work much more at home, it was overwhelming to be at home without internet and without a phone to communicate, it was a very rough few days.
Thank you very much for your comment beardman, I miss you too.
I am glad you were able to get another phone. I’m also glad that your uncle seems to be doing better. Keep your head up man.
Hoping for all the best, to you and your family! A terrible experience will take time to heal. Be patient and things will work out for you.
