It’s been 3 weeks…

...since the checkup in the hospital... For three weeks now, I've been practicing my walking again. No more crutches. Unfortunately I can't say "no more pain" yet, as I'm still partially bruised in the right hip area, with some edema swelling here and there (including thicker ankles than usual, still, unfortunately). The hospital visit was a bit of a trigger for me, as the surgeon tried to make light of the things that had happened to me (because he didn't change the hip ball to fit the cup better... 🤔). More of that I shared here: “Just a little bit of bad luck”. I will share part of the fit journey in my monthly fitness blog post. But I'll include more stats then. Now, it's just me babbling about the last three weeks... 🚶 […]

👏 Thanks to the 32 members of the #IRCT network in #Europe for their participation in our ongoing Regional Consultations as we develop the new IRCT Strategy 2026-2030.

With our 176 members in 80 countries in every region of the world, the sheer diversity of IRCT members’ expertise, gathered together in solidarity for the shared purpose of providing #rehabilitation to survivors of #torture, represents the organisation’s greatest strength.

From Europe, suggestions under our Goal 1 of #healing included steps to take the knowledge sharing from our webinar series into in-person or remote peer-to-peer professional training.

Under Goal 2, #justice, participants discussed advocacy strategies at national and international levels, including universal jurisdiction cases, and documentation of torture cases at the Hashtag #EU's external borders.

The group will continue their discussions on a monthly basis, and invite others from the 57 IRCT members in Europe to join them.

I consider this progress.

Earlier in the year, my mantra was "Just gotta get through the next thirty seconds." which is great because you're half way there if you say it slow enough.

Thanks to considerable effort in research and practice of meditation, reframing, thought-stopping, challenging of unhelpful beliefs, grounding and mindfulness, this has now improved to:
"Just gotta get through the next quarter of an hour."

So I went for a appointment with my neurologist in London ON today, for the first time since I got my toes amputated in June. In fact it was my first time being out except for daily hyperbaric treatments. And it while driving by the University I saw all these super cute girls in little booty shorts and bikini tops. Makes me so sad for missing all of summer, and now going to uni this year 😥
And my nurse said I'll probably be lucky to be all healed by Christmas.
😥

"as a pink lover. The ""universal""" hatred of the color #pink by young girls is due to the heavy expectation of #femininity forced on them. It is an expression of frustration at #gender roles. It is not internalized #misogyny. No you will not inevitably start liking pink as an #adult and if you do that is not #healing your inner divine #feminine or whatever we're saying now. Its a color. 😁👍"
