Thank you all so much for the kind words and support! I'm SO glad that I got into college also as I really wanted to prove that I CAN do something even though I have RSD!!! I know it will be a lot of hard work but it is something I want to do so hopefully it will be well worth it in the end!!

I'm still not sure what to do about the botox. I REALLY want the Dystonia to go as it affects my life sooo much but on the other hand, I don't want to make my RSD worse and be put in a wheelchair again. I think we really need to weigh up the pro's and con's. I went to PT on Wednesday and they suggested seeing how the next 2 sessions go and if things dont improve then they want to admit me to do some intense work before trying the botox which I think is a good idea.

My mum had a meeting with the school centre yesterday to see if I could possibly start going there full time as school really isn't working out. The teachers were really understanding and took the time to listen. They agreed with us that you cant force someone to be your friend and that the extra stress isn't helping. The teachers said that they dont see any problem in me going there full time but that they would need to speak to their boss about it as he makes all of the final decisions. Hopefully next week we will have some answers as to whether or not I can go there!!

One of my close friends left the school centre today. She is emmigrating to Australia so it was a pretty sad day. It's kinda hard knowing that i'll probably never see her again. She has helped me through a lot of difficult times and has always been there for me. We both have email though so hopefully we will be able to keep in touch via that once she has settled down.

Thanks again everyone and i'll keep you all posted.
