@DJMasters Yes son2 and I enjoyed watching 'The Meg' full of blood and guts :p. Just the kind of movie son2 likes to watch although I refuse to watch true gore and horror.

@DJMasters @Former-Member @greenpea @MDT and others!
Thanks so much for your support. My 11yo son is home from overnight hospital stay- no more head pain but paediatric emergency physician said he cannot go to school tomorrow. Even though my husband thinks our 19yo can look after him tomorrow, I've decided to stay home from work. That way I can drive the 14yo to/from GP appointment re mood & self harm. We asked him if he wanted his older brothers to know that the school guidance Officer saw him on Friday but he didn't want that. I really like this cheery thread (the only one I use) - sorry if my messages about the recent turn of events haven't been appropriately posted. Might try to listen to some music/comedy before I take the 20yo back to the city.
Hope you're all enjoying your Sunday's and that those ✅ are happening!

Thanks a lot @greenpea I'm feeling a bit better after a one hour nap & my 11yo seems good (bet he'll be bored tomorrow!). I'm a bit anxious about the GP appointment at 11.30 with the 14 yo. Originally my husband was taking him alone but wondering if I should go too. The 11yo should be fine for an hour with the 19yo (as long as he ensures he doesn't jump on the trampoline etc etc ). We could begin the consultation with the 3 of us then we can leave him alone for private time with the GP. Your thoughts? @greenpea @Ant7 @Maggie @Former-Member @MDT @Zoe7 @Sans911

@Sam3 Don't need to apologise, you are always welcome to share anything you like here. We are here to support you in every way we can. That's okay if your 14yr doesn't want to share, perhaps he doesnt want his brothers to worry or he might feel bad about having the guidance councillr chatting with him. Hope it all goes well with the GP tomorrow.
Good to hear your 11 yr is recovering, I am sure things will be fine. Hope you get some time to take a moment to yourself with everything that has happened. you are doing amazing and remember always here
Hugs Hugs Hugs to you and your family.
