This time last year I would not have been enjoying my mini-vacation like I am this year.

• My asthma was so bad I could hardly breathe
• My knee was so painful I couldn’t walk far and cycling was out
• Wearing a swimsuit was something I avoided if I possibly could

I had a sickening feeling that my health and my quality of life were on a rapid downhill trajectory.

Ironically, I Wasn’t trying to Improve my Health When the Magic Happened … I’d given up on that

It was my desire to write here on Medium. Something that’s been a lifelong goal. Well, not the Medium bit, but definitely the writing.

I chose Medium as a platform, but apart from the weekends, the only time I had available was the early hours of the morning. The trouble was the early hours of the morning was my exercise time.

I dropped my exercise routine. Another irony.
