Far and Away

Hi @Former-Member .... 😊

You wrote:

Thanks @Faith-and-Hope, how's your adventure going? Is there a particular thread your putting updates? Jetlag takes about a week to settle I'm told, and I'm sure there's son Celtic wisdom to get over your post viral fatigue How's WH coping with his obcessive routines while travelling? A challenge I would think 😕 Hope this is a time yo rekindle some first love maybe.
Any good churches to visit there? Did you go this morning? Love ancient architecture and history. Churches are great for it. Hugz xox

Hadn't thought to start a new thread ....

In transit again today and have to go again now .... found a brief moment with wifi .... will catch you later and answer the above.

Hi to everyone else .... 👋🏽💗💕

Re: Far and Away

I feel like such a failure as a mother. So sorry to say this @Faith-and-Hope @Zoe7

Not coping with this at all. What would I do if I lost her? The news we had yesterday was so distressing.
I feel bad for saying anything, because you have your own struggles.

Re: Far and Away

I know you're going through so much yourself @Faith-and-Hope but I'd really appreciate more prayers. Will pray for you too. 💖

Re: Far and Away

Hey @Former-Member You talk all you need or want to Hon - we are here for you. As I said before - I truly cannot imagine what you are both going through and that horrible feeling that there is nothing you can do is not being a failure as a mother - it is natural for anyone in your situation to be feeling defeated by it all. The only advice I have is to treasure each day as if it is the last - make the most of the time you have with your D for as long as you can. In the future you will remember the good times more than the not so good so make some of those memories right now.

Re: Far and Away

@WIP This is my main 'home' where I post the most along with some other wonderful people @Faith-and-Hope @Shaz51 @Sans911 @Snowie @Former-Member to name a few. It is a social thread that @Faith-and-Hope initially started to update us on her travels - thus the Far and Away title. As we can no longer post from outside of Australia it has continued as a social thread but @Faith-and-Hope and I post here regularly. We also support each other and others here so you are more than welcome to join us for a chat, let us know how you are doing or just for a soft place to land.

Re: Far and Away

Just sit here with us then Hon. I have drilled the hole in the trailer, got all my school things out of the car, vacuumed, sprayed the lawn, driveway and paved areas to k*ll the weeds and fed the fur babies @Former-Member @Faith-and-Hope Next is to think about dinner and then more work. What are you having for dinner Pippa29?
