Hey @Sunnyside226 ,
I hope you don't mind me making this thread for you.
I just wanted you to know that the whole forums community is here to support you through this challenging time.
Please look after yourself. I recognise it's hard to look after three small children on your own.

@Sunnyside226 it's ok, let's just focus on right now. Know that you wouldn't be wasting their time calling them again, they are there to support you and understand these things can be hard to talk about. Even for me when I'm asked if I have a plan and I pause for a moment before answering cos yes it's scary to know that you've thought that far into things.
I'd love to see a picture of them if you'd like to share 😊

@Sunnyside226 just waiting for the pictures to load but here's my stitch collection of build a bears.
It's ok not to know, but we are right here with you in this moment and we will find a way through it. Today I've been taking things one moment and one breath at a time, you don't have to know what comes next just getting through this moment is enough and then we tackle the next. We keep going for however long it takes for things to settle again where we can focus on maybe a few minutes or even an hour at a time♥️

@Sunnyside226 i know how loud those thoughts can be and I know you feel alone. But we are right here with you.
Would grabbing one of your squishmallows and telling me some of the details about it help? You could try to notice how it feels, colours or patterns on it.

@Sunnyside226 That sounds really vulnerable for you... 😔
We don't have to discuss how you're feeling about it all further right now, but I am here if you need to do so throughout the week, okay? I hope that yourself and Dreamy have a lovely time connecting and sharing this evening - it seems like it's really helping to soothe you. 💛
