From a reader:
Hi
I have read and enjoyed greatly the work on your website.
After suffering a TBI last year, I spent 5 months in a coma and the rest of the year in Addenbrookes hospital.
I have had a long and painful journey of recovery and still attend the hospital twice a week now.
I have always loved poetry and now I really feel as though I have got something to share.
I don’t expect you will want my work for your site, but wonder if you know of any online groups where I can share my poems?
I attach one for you.
Many Thanks,
Scott

Why did I fall?
Why did I fall down the stairs that night?
Why did I never see heaven or a light?
Why did this have to happen at all to me?
Why could’nt fate lust leave me be?
After all the treatment and rehab and stuff
Why do I fell lucky and happy and tough?
How have I found peace in this hell of a mess?
Why do I fell lighter and suffer less stress?
I think I fell from more than the stairs that night.
I think I fell from blindness and now have sight.
I worry not about the stuff I left behind.
I worry not because I can be good and kind.
So despite of all the agony and pain I feel.
I savour every moment, for my life is real.
I long to find a friend that really understands.
I’d love to stop and talk a while, but I have plans…
