Throughout the summer he finds simple pleasure in gather wood so he can later cut it up and then stack in the garden ready to burn in their log burner for winter. This is quite a physically demanding job. Something he deals with daily that makes small jobs sometimes impossible for him is Inclusion Body Myositis and Atria Fibrillation, this means to have an irregular Heart Rhythm and Chronic Asthma. The Inclusion body Myositis is not treatable, the muscles affected include the throat as well as others. Particularly eating and swallowing then becomes a problem as food and drink can enter the right lung causing Aspirational Pneumonia Choking which is a major concern. Other muscles are also affected as it’s a Muscle Wasting disease, currently he is at a stage where he isn’t very sure footed and it has led him to always wear a something called a bump hat which is to protect his head when he falls over. With these complex health issues, even doing everyday tasks and pottering around his garage and garden isn’t always easy.
