Just checking in.

Just checking in.

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.

Re: Just checking in.

@utopia .....

Thanks for that heads-up ....

WH is taking a multi-vitamin and eating pitiful amounts of salad and fruit .... and some cereal .... I hope it's enough to hold him, but ... ?

Suddenly stopping the amount of exercise he was doing .... doesn't mean his metabolism has also slowed down, or maybe it was wound down tight anyway .... again, it's the not knowing ....

If he gets scared enough of whatever symptoms crop up we will be able to take him off to hospital, and his mum will panic and jump up and down for that too, so there's something .... 😔

Gonna try to sleep again now. Need to recover my own system.

Thanks so much for your feedback. After this length of years with this beast you can start to feel a bit lost in it .... wonder whether you're over-doing the concern. You have provided me a reality check ....

💜

@utopia .... was your dad diabetic ?

Re: Just checking in.

@Faith-and-Hope. Not that we know of. And he saw his gp monthly for regular checks - due to his mental health - ptsd.
But my dad was a stubborn man when it came to being sick. Didn't matter what the illness -- to him - you starved it.
Don't want to alarm you. But I just thought of dad when I read your post.
try and sleep and we will talk when it's tomorrow - your time.

Re: Just checking in.

@TAB. Please don't 'spose.
Say - I'm going to the doctors today. Be definite. This is something good that you are going to do for yourself today.
And if you only do one good thing today - this is it.
I bet it's hard. You might be scared. But we are all with you here. Or, just think of me being right beside you. Or probably behind you - pushing you through the door. I am a bossy - bleep.

Re: Just checking in.

Told you I was bossy @TAB.
I've just mowed some more of my backyard. Looks good. But then it makes the bits I haven't mowed - messier.
I'm sure that could be a metaphor for something. Lol
Might make my son mow the rest. I'm sweating like a pig.
