Hi Jacques and Karen,
Well.. I'm not sure what you both thought of tonight. I'm actually a little teary... in a good way. So nice to see how they are doing and just an overwhelming feeling of wanting them to continue to do well.
What did you both think?

Well @NikNik, it was nice to see them temporarily well, but long term future for most of them will be in and out of MHU, i don't know what the answer is until their is more breakthrough's in the brain, and neuro science.

Nik I agree with Jacques, when I left the mhu after my first visit, they told me I would be back. I didn't believe them. It's just a revolving door.
I am glad there was some improvement for them.

I am a little shaky, low, and wondering what the future holds for me, thinking about another year of life wasted, generally feeling sorry for myself, how are you feeling?

I feel that I'm one of those in the too hard basket they can't help me so I get put back in the mhu. I have never left the mhu feeling any better than when I went in.
Overwhelmed and hopeless.
I feel that the girls will be better off without me
