Self Isolation: Day 21

I am now approaching week four of self isolation and have managed to complete nearly 21 days... just! It has been very tough waking up every day to do the bare minimum, but the sun is shining which puts everyone in a good mood! Despite the fact I can't go out and walk, at least I am able to sit in the garden. I have to think of the positives throughout this as some CFers will be stuck inside a flat without a garden!

Mum and dad arrived back from Costa Rica earlier than planned but at least they were able to get a flight back! It's been nice to have some company in the house, although we are all keeping our distance. 


I have been keeping up with the indoor home workouts, using the Beam website. These have helped out with my chest clearance and have stopped my chest feeling so tight. I have been following up with my physiotherapy after each workout. So hopefully when all of this blows over, I will see an improvement on the lung function graph! Fingers crossed!


If you're a Disney fan, like me, I would recommend downloading Disney+. I already have all of the 56 classics on DVD, but the Disney+ app has all Disney movies, series and programmes ever created. There's even some films only available on the app such as the new live-action Lady and the Tramp movie. I've never watched so much Disney in my life haha.


I have managed to continue to Facetime family and friends which is keeping me sane! My friend Dom and I were supposed to be in Manchester this weekend, so instead we had an indoor virtual party via the Marco Polo app. 


So, I have managed 3 weeks of total isolation. If I can do that long, it's proof that this is possible for those who are not vulnerable to complete 14 days. Please follow the guidelines and STAY AT HOME and hopefully this will be over quicker.
