The Old LADY...

.... Needs a hip replacement!

Juventus put in another uninspiring performance and this time in the highest club competition, the Champions League against Lyon. Juve always claim that they play every game to win it, on viewing this game it looked like they decided to take a nap!
From the start they had a sense of arrogance about themselves like all they had to do was show up and they would win. All the pundits had them winning this game with ease, this should have been motivation for them to play harder and win it yet they did the opposite and lost it 1-0.
This season Juve have started to rely on Ronaldo a bit too much, he may be good but he can't do everything.

Juventus have to really step up a gear or two if they are to progress, if this is how the play against one of the big boys ( no offence to Lyon who are 7th in the French league) they don't stand a chance at finally winning this competition.

As always Forza Juventus!

Slipping away...

I still can't believe it's the year 2020!!! A lot of people will be reflecting on their life and they'll be pretty pleased with what they've accomplished, me on the other hand, I just think about how my life is slowly slipping away. I'm 36 and have a debilitating disease and because of this disease I can go nowhere by myself and when I do go our ( to the gym) I have to get someone to drop me and pick me up, for a person who used to go out when SHE wanted to and just go for walks whenever I wanted to this is a lot to handle!

I have Ataxia, it is a horrible disease that robs you of your independence, I am slowly losing my ability to walk and going to the gym can slow the progression but ultimately I will lose this battle and I'm not handling it well. Like I said before I go to the gym but that's about it I don't really talk to anyone and when I do go out my "friends" hardly want to talk about how I'm feeling so I have to pretend to be happy because no one wants to hang out with a depressive!

I spend nearly all my time at home which may mead to less falls but what my family don't seem to understand is that the less I walk the faster this gets worse. I just feel so hopeless and the only time where I feel slightly happy is when I'm asleep because I can walk properly in my dreams and this has just lead me to be very sad to wake up.

I feel as though my life is slipping away, I mean what kind of life is this??
