I appreciate that lots of people love it and the long light evenings are lovely blah blah blah but for as long as I can remember I have been ill whenever it is hot and sunny. I get headaches, my eyes itch and water constantly, I get agonising sinusitis. Last night I had severe nausea and dizziness after being out of the house for maybe two hours. My blood sugar is much much harder to stabilise in the summer with all the complications that go with that.
I know all about shady hats, sunblock, shades, parasols and staying hydrated and I still find June and July difficult and August pretty much unbearable.
I have some mobility issues with the diabetes anyway but these are much worse in the summer. Whatever weight I am this remains the same.
I am also of course full of Goth affectations and think pale is beautiful but when you rave about how great the summer is do spare a thought for the disabled.
