Re: Am Not Coping
I had chicken and veggies for dinner - ate early because I am expecting to have an early night @Former-Member - very sore and painkillers are only just working to take the edge off. I did expect to be in some pain and tired but it is a little more than I thought
Toby and Cat have both been fed and are happy resting - Toby of course is right next to me lol
I have to go out tonight - I have run out of one of my meds so a quick chemist run it will be - I am going to wait a couple of hours though until the traffic clears - chemist is open until 9pm so I have plenty of time. Hopefully I can get out and take my meds around 7ish and then sleep.
Hi @Faith-and-Hope and @utopia

Re: Am Not Coping
Yes @Former-Member @utopia .... not right or fair. You need to be met with a high level of compassion and support no matter whether they can help you or not ..... feeling for you and sitting with you .... 💗💖💞💝💕💓💗
Hopefully the pain is a product of healing @Zoe7. I had to learn that concept with my D3’s dislocations and my Dad’s knee surgeries ..... but I am sorry you have to go through it anyway ..... 😔
And thanks @utopia. I found that deer image pretty special too ..... 🌷

Re: Am Not Coping
The deer image was adorable @Faith-and-Hope
I did expect some pain and I was pre-warned that it would probably feel worse for a few days after the first few sessions but it is a process and will take time. I am hoping that being so physically tired will actually help me to sleep tonight.
How was your day Hon?

Re: Am Not Coping
Thanks @utopia 💜
Its been ongoing
During visit to emergency she was hospitalised last year. Tests etc since.
Its been traumatic.
Trying to move forward. This letter just brought all the trauma back up again.
Yes, it’s really unbelievable how many huge mistakes they’ve made.
😘💜☕️👋🐬 @Faith-and-Hope
@Zoe7 Thats annoying you have to go out.
I hope you do get to sleep early and sleep through peacefully. 💜💖
i am guessing the hydrotherapy has caused more pain. Too much to read back. I hope eventually the pain will ease.

Re: Am Not Coping
Yes @Former-Member the pain is from my hydrotherapy session I am thinking of not taking that med tonight and going to the chemist in the morning instead - it is pretty cold outside already - I will see how I am feeling in the next hour or so...

Re: Am Not Coping
My day has been okay @Zoe7 ..... out for coffee this morning, then to the dr’s cos D2’s application for a Companion Card got inexplicably rejected .... ??!! ..... even though she clearly meets the criteria ..... ??!! .... so more paperwork had to be filled out for what must be a clerical error.
Then I had to get some documents verified with S2, but his days and nights are still not right, so his morning was 2pm .... but we got there and got everything sorted and where it had to go .....
Picked up a burger for him for his “lunch” along with some shopping on the way home, so picked up some zucchini chips for me too .... 😁 .... so we can at least have dinner together somewhere closer to pumpkin hour. I have fish, he’s got steak, and I made a beautiful kale coleslaw a couple of days ago that will stay fresh for a couple of days yet ..... 👍
So. Everything is done and dusted, and now I can be here for a while.

Re: Am Not Coping
Sounds like a super busy day @Faith-and-Hope
It is annoying when there is an error like that and you are the one that needs to try to fix it - grrr!!
Sounds like you have dinner all sorted for both you and S2 - I have already had mine and so have the furbabies. Your niece is curled up on her chair snoring away lol
I definitely think I will be coming home tomorrow between DBT and my pdoc appointment - I am going to be too sore to go anywhere else to waste time ...there is 2 hours between both!

Re: Am Not Coping
2 hours sounds like a reasonable rest time for you @Zoe7, and you probably won’t find anywhere as comfortable as your own couch to spend them on.

Re: Am Not Coping
Takes me about 25-30 minutes driving each way so it is about an hour I am at home but I can lay down for that hour at least @Faith-and-Hope. I am going to brave the cold night air and go to the chemist - will be back later...
@Former-Member hope you are enjoying your dinner before House Rules comes on - btw I want Lee and Kristie to be at the bottom of the leader board and have to leave - they are not being very nice to the others
