I thought I'd start a discussion where we can check in with members and use this space to keep in contact. It's a space to be able to say how you really feel and it's a space for the good, the bad and the ugly moments in our lives.

Hi @Faith-and-Hope
Its good to hear from you- and thank you for your concern.. I have been thinking of you too.
I'm okay atm- I had a specialist appointment today, and that went well. My specialist and I are more on the same page now, I am quite lucky to have her and she has been looking after me since 98. We have quite a long history together.I do understand your worries for WH and him not taking care of himself. Hope you sorted your wifi woes and you were able to get the tribe to lunch on time.
I have been a bit down over the last week or two but I am hoping things pick up for me, I was doing a day program at the local hospital but I asked yesterday to change programs because it was not for me. It seemed to be causing me more stress then being helpful for me. At this stage I am not going into hospital and I need to keep managing things at home and doing my volunteer work.
I am just weighing up my options- going back to uni or just sticking with my volunteer work, and just slowly build myself up again. I think going back to uni is going to be too stressful for me. But I am trying to keep an open mind, and I think I am leaning towards my volunteer work but my offer should come in next Thursday.

Hi @oceangirl I read your post to @Faith-and-Hope. I have been finding it hard to keep up on the forum and had a difficult time of late. I was happy for you to read you had a good specialist appointment. Good luck with your offer for uni regardless of what you choose. Could you do one subject maybe to see how it goes. That's my plan for now because then it doesn't cost so much if it goes pear shaped. I also understand if you need to work on you too, I know you have a busy year with lots of plans.
Im really glad you are back and posting. I can only imagine that you've had a really tough time. Thinking of you and sending hugs 💜🤗💐
