Hi everyone and welcome to my 35th Haiku Hope – part of the COPE campaign bundle of creative distractions.
This time I wanted to write about my experiences since being diagnosed with Bells Palsy.
If you’d like to know more about Bells Palsy then please look at my blog, where I recently posted more information on what it is and my experiences with it.
This has been a really rough patch for both my physical and mental health. It’s left my confidence at an all time low and the pain has been unreal on the worst days.
Thankfully I have someone at home making sure I’m comfortable, taking my medication and that my pain is being managed (to a point). Even on my worst days, I feel incredibly grateful for him.
I hope you like this one.

The Bells
“Your face has fallen.”
“Oh my god. I look awful.”
“No. You’re still perfect.”

Remember if you need some distractions from stress then there are more jokes on my Hold Humour page, as well as haikus on Haiku Hope, awful poems on Crap Poems and odd language in Weird Words. I also have a page dedicated to stress hacks and other ideas to try if you need a distraction within the COPE campaign section of this website.
If you are experiencing symptoms of mental illness or Bells Palsy then please call your GP, the NHS 111 service or 999 urgently. These symptoms could be indicative of a stroke and should be checked as soon as possible.
Thanks for visiting.
