Far and Away

Hi @Former-Member .... 😊

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 ....

Hi to everyone else .... 👋🏽💗💕

Re: Far and Away

ohh @Eve7 a 5 minute drive sounds good. I have to drive an hour to get to the hospital where I have ECT. Well I don't drive, H does but I keep him company!! The joys of living in the bush.

I am glad you have a lot of fun @Zoe7 It is so much easier to go to work when you enjoy your work and enjoy going every day.

Re: Far and Away

Hi @Snowie it's almost an hour when I'm admitted but this time pdoc offered to do it at the public hospital so I took him up on it. It's probably 10 minutes coming home because there's more traffic coming home.

H is lucky to have your company and you his....good time to chat if you can.

Re: Far and Away

@Eve7 that sounds like a good pdoc. Unfortunately pdoc, psych, hospital are all about an hour away for me and all in city traffic.

I wish I could chat to him, I just find it so hard to do, to do with anyone.

Re: Far and Away

I’’ve been fortunate with pdoc @Snowie . I kind of knew him before so I’d had a “note to self” if I needed a pdoc.

He’s kind and patient but he challenges me a lot to get well which I don’t always appreciate. I’ve also seen him pretty shattered when he lost a patient and that is something that keeps me going as I don’t want to hurt him. He challenges that too and says I have to see my worth as a person and that is what should keep me alive. Hard thoughts.

I care about you my buddy 💜☃️💜

Re: Far and Away

I am glad you have found a nice, caring pdoc hun @Eve7 He seems to care about you and how you are going which is good. It is always helpful when we have people in our corner. I hope you continue to have those people hun, you deserve all the support you can get.💜

Re: Far and Away

We all deserve that support @Snowie including you. There’s been plenty of times when I couldn’t speak or just spoke drivel and pdoc has said “he wouldn’t waste his or my time”. so he’s not always “soft and gentle” but he does appear to be able to pick what I can take on any given day.
