glass animals:a message from joe ❤️: hi everyone, it's joe. I have learned a lot this summer, I thought I'd share a few of my findings with you all: 1) I am extremely lucky. my family and friends and the doctors and nurses in dublin are remarkable people. the band and my family sat next to me in hospital for two weeks while I couldn't speak or move and haven't left me since, I've been looked after by the best 2) trucks are extremely hard. 3) in the last couple of months I have learnt to walk, talk and read again- watching a body heal in real time has been quite amazing, saying more than 'i' is actually very complicated and tiring, so is adapting to lots of metal in your limbs. i have always taken my body for granted, I won't anymore. 4) your support, messages, letters and videos have been inspiring. I'm so sorry if you missed us playing this summer, we will get back to those we missed when we can. you are very cool people for bearing with me. apparently: 5) brain injuries can lead to wildly increased creativity - less inhibitions - so basically perfect timing for getting back on my kit, which I have just started doing. It'll be what all the musicians are doing soon, believe this is a picture of my carrot cake, the flamingos on top are the band apparently - and a picture of cardi bee, i was asked to channel my inner Frida Kahlo while convalescing, this is what I came up with - see point 5 above thank you all for your support. especially to dave, drew and ed Joe ...

来自Joe的一条信息❤:(为方便阅读进行了分段)
嗨,大家好,这里是Joe。这个夏天里我学到了很多,我觉得我该向你们分享一下我的一些发现:
1)我很幸运。我的家人和朋友、Dublin的医生护士们都超好。乐队和家人在我医院床边坐了整整两个星期,即便期间我口不能言寸步难行,他们也从未离开过我,我被最棒的一群人照顾着。
2)卡车真的好重啊。
3)过去的两个月里我再一次学习了走路,说话与阅读——在实实在在的一段时间里看着身体的康复是一件很奇妙的事,混乱不堪疲乏难耐的不只是“我”,要适应四肢里的金属也并非易事。我总以为我的身体是件理所当然的东西,我再也不会这样认为了。
4)你们的支持、讯息和信件以及视频都是那么的鼓舞人心。如果你错过了我们这个夏天的演奏,我为此感到无比抱歉,我们力所能及之时会去挽回我们错过的那些。能忍受这样的我,你们可都是很棒的人了。
显而易见的是:5)大脑损伤会导致创造力的狂野迸发——抑制力减弱了——所以基本来看现在正是回到我设备边上的绝妙时机,我也正刚刚开始。这马上要成为所有音乐家们将做的事了。
相信这是我的胡萝卜蛋糕的照片,上边的火烈鸟显然是乐队——还有cardi bee的一张照片,我在康复期间被要求去引导我内心的Frida Kahlo,这就是我想出的办法——参见第五点。谢谢你们的支持。尤其是Dave,Drew和ed。
Joe
