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 ....

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 .... 👋🏽💗💕

@Adge That is amazing news for you buddy Even though the process for the Disability Support Pension is bigger, having this doctor suggest it is a good first step. It of course will take careful consideration by you but if one of their doctotr's is suggesting that then it is certainly worth thinking about.

Re: Far and Away

Thank you @Zoe7 Much appreciated.

All you would know (Re: Reports) - All this Paperwork & Reports is not much Fun, esp when not being paid any $$ to do it.

I needed a "Yes" or a "You were Successful", of some sort.

So was Really Chuffed that I finally got through (Got success of some sort).

Regardless of whether DES proves Useful or Helpful - my Brother said DES gave him No Help Whatsoever.

I just feel Affirmed with some Recognition that - Indeed Yes I do have Chronic conditions with Daily impacts.

Very nice Lady Doctor she was - Respectful, & actually waited to Hear what I had to say.

Rather Rare in my Experience with Professionals (especially Doctors) - Very Rare, for someone Representing (contracted for) Centrelink...

Re: Far and Away

I honestly could not be any happier for you with this win @Adge It may not seem much to some but with all you have been through lately it certainly is recognition that you have been severely impacted by past experiences and it does indeed affect you every day. Thank goodness you got this great doctor to listen to you and that she not only did that but heard what you had to say. It really is validation for you (finally)

Re: Far and Away

@Faith-and-Hope @Snowie @Shaz51 @Eve7 @Adge Still doing reports here but have struggled tonight to get a lot done - not because of tiredness this time but left most of what I needed at school in my rush to get to a meeting ...that was a rush because I had to move all the art things after school from one class to my own, Usually I would have kids help but we ran out of time this afternoon when their class teacher needed to talk to them towards the end of the day. That made it hard for me as what we would usually move as a class I had to do on my own So it will be a very early morning as I will need to be at work super early to try to catch up because I have another meeting after school and then meeting with my colleague teacher to go through the reports together....going to be a vey long day.

@Faith-and-Hope Have not stopped thinking about you Hon and what you are dealing with. I think I have some idea but will not put that here ...instead know you are in my thoughts and in my heart and I hope you are looking after yourself as well as your family. Hugs and hugs and hugs sweetheart

Hugs and love to all here also

Re: Far and Away

Oh @Zoe7 I feel for you Hon. I wish we could all be there to help you at times like these 🙁. Hugs n hugs 💞💞💞💞💞🌻

I am doing okay ..... crazy busy, and something quite shocking has happened, but it doesn't affect me directly. It affects my ex.

Ihave had to make some business decisions, and people I didn't e pect to have stepped up to help me. It has been a lovely surprise, and validating in the wake of all of ex's abuse.
