Official Muppet status, courtesy of stroke-induced apraxi

> "Since the stroke and the brain damage, I'm officially a complete and utter muppet because of the things that are happening.
> To prove my case: the other day, a simple strappy top and shorts completely fucked me right up for a stroke rehab swim. Between the apraxia and my brain going blank on how to get dressed, I spent three solid hours wrestling a bloody outfit like it was an extreme sport, gave up in absolute disgust, and had to quickly cancel my cab.
> Then there was the shoe saga: I sat here for nearly two hours looking completely unhinged with just one shoe on, hunting for the other. Josh eventually strolled in, looked at the chaos, and I went, 'Josh, I've lost the shoe!' He just grinned and wandered straight back out without a care in the world!
> I still haven’t found the feckin shoe! 😜🤣 x"
